This Caledonia Edradour is a single malt specially selected by songwriter Douglas Maclean and named after his famous song, Caledonia following a 12-year maturation in oloroso sherry casks.
Sweet, creamy and honeyed, with notes of Manuka honey, hints of dried fig and date, soft sherry and a hint of oak.
Full and rich with notes of berry fruits, and honey and butter on granary toast. More sherry, caramel and toasted almond.
Spicy, dry and sprinkled with a dusting of cocoa.

Classy and full of flavour. Rich taste & slight honey. taste of Brandy with raisins and a spicy tone. Gorgeous / delicious !
A rich tasting whisky with a nice finish. Smooth and not smoky. Highly recommend. A much fuller taste than their 10 year old, but that comes at a higher price. Well worth it.
I bought this on a recommendation from a reliable scotch source. By the way he made it sound this was going to be incredible. For me, it wasn't. There was not much complexity going on. It was just straight-forward, hit your face whisky. The flavors were just not there for me. This is not for everyone.
I'm not usually a sherry/port cask drinker, but this is amazing. Thick & honeyed, with a full flavor, maybe tobacco leaf or leather, and none of the 'dregs' of the cask taste. I will be getting more of this.
First of all I want to point out that this isn't a single cask bottling, it says nothing on the labelling to suggest it is, furthermore I asked someone at the distillery and he confirmed it is not a single cask. That, however, does not detract from the fact that this is an absolutely stunning whisky, there hasn't been anything that has impressed me like this has for a good while. The rustic charm of the distillery comes through in the whisky, that’s not to say that it’s rough or lacks quality in any way, it just has craft produced character. It’s my kind of whisky, big, bold flavour with some considerable complexity, it has pretty big sherry kick yet the spirit is more than capable of standing up to it with a unique sweetness.
