About this deal

If any provision of these Terms is held invalid, the remainder of the Terms shall continue in full force and effect. Note to self: proceed with caution on this one, Earie. I know for a fact that this particular whisky is held in very high regard by some of my esteemed colleagues here at Dramface, so being less than respectful to it is simply not an option – not if I want to avoid the righteous wrath of a hardened Glaswegian or two (are there any other, I wonder?).

Each and every Member must be of legal drinking age in its country of residence to be allowed to use the Service. If no such law exists in a Member’s country of residence, the Member has to be over 21 years old to use the Service. We have the right to ask you to provide proof of your age and/or to provide further identification to prevent underage usage and/or for any other legal or legitimate purpose.

The Service has been prepared by us solely for information purposes to Members and the Service is based on information we consider reliable and we obtain the contents of the Service from a number of different third party sources (including Contributions), but we do not endorse, support, represent, warrant or guarantee the completeness, truthfulness, accuracy, or reliability of the Services and any information therein. With Water: A few drops of water opens a little orange-blossom honey on the nose, and adds some kind of citrus to the palate. Seems otherwise not to affect the whisky. A few drops doesn’t hurt, but I wouldn’t try to add more for fear of washing out the already subtle flavors. Glencadam is one of those malts that you’ve never heard of, but may well have tasted. Its unusual creaminess and light, floral character make it valuable in blending. The majority of output from the distillery has traditionally been a component in Stewart’s Cream of the Barley blend, and also appears in Ballantine’s and a few other products. Only recently, after acquisition by Angus Dundee plc, has the range of Glencadam single malts been expanded. Prior to 2003, only a 15-year official bottling was available. Now, a 10 year makes this malt more accessible, and a 21 and two cask-finished expressions (a portwood and an oloroso sherry-finished) round out the profile. The region of the southern Highlands (along the eastern coast) once flourished with malt distillation, but after many closures in the 1970s and 1980s (such as Lochside and Glenesk), Glencadam remains.

Regardless of whether the Service offers the functionality to contribute, you are solely responsible and liable for any content and information that you create, upload, post, publish, link to, duplicate, transmit, record, display or otherwise make available on the Service or to other Members, such as chat messages, text messages, videos, audio, audio recordings, music, pictures, photographs, text and any other information or materials, whether publicly posted or privately transmitted (“Contributions”). Whiskybase B.V. (“Whiskybase”, “we” or “us”, company details below) offers a whisky enthusiasts online platform that provides its members access to the most comprehensive, transparent and trusted resource of whisky bottles and allows and stimulates its members to contribute information about whisky bottles to the platform (“Service”). Light, floral and delicate, with apple compote and pears, soft notes of vanilla and a whisper of coconut. Unripe banana, icing sugar and something creamy – custard with a hint of lemon, some honey and a cereal. There’s also a bread note. Our Service is an online platform which provides Members with information (e.g. bottle facts, market-indices, market values and prices) on (mostly) whisky and allows Members to add information to the platform. We do not sell, nor does the Service provide any option to buy, any alcoholic products.We may sell, license, transfer, assign or in any other way dispose of the Service (including Members) to any third party without any notification to you, e.g. (but without limitation) in connection with any reorganization, restructuring, merger or sale, or other transfer of assets. Without prejudice to the section Liability below, the Service may be temporarily unavailable during maintenance, updates, etc. We shall make reasonable efforts to inform you of any unavailability due to maintenance or updates. Palate: Excellent creamy body, like a single-grain whisky. A bit sharp on the tongue burn, for a 46%. Resolves with marshmallow, raw pecans, and fresh sweet whipping cream. Light in character. Overall: An interesting one. It has almost no presence in the nose, but shows really nice body on the tongue. It isn’t until the finish that the flavors really come to life. Seems odd to skip the smelling and tasting stages to get to the good stuff, but there it is. I wouldn’t rush out and buy a bottle of this, but it’s worth a shot if you see it on a bar menu, but drink it first in the lineup – I doubt it would stand up well next to other, more robust drams. I would guess that the extra five years in barrel would give the 15-year official bottling the assertiveness and complexity that is missing here.
