Single Malt
Edradour
Scotland
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.
£5.59 - £43.90
Great stuff - sherry influence very prominent, complex and rich. Good mouthfeel, scotch mist like no other! Also, great value where I’m buying (Sweden). Interesting expression from an interesting distillery.
Being a big fan of this distillery, i decided to try this Dougie McClean dram. Its a very rich whisky; a touch more so than the 10, the extra 2 years have produced more chocolate and a nice honey and more sherried whisky, and a great longish finish. again it is improved by the slightest drop of water; opens up by a huge margin... quality stuff but imo needs that 1/4 teaspoon of water. struth
The more whisky I drink...and I’ve been drinking it for quite a few years...the more I’m drawn to those which are not chill-filtered and are naturally colored. Some distilleries like Ardbeg, Springbank, Bunnahabhain and Glendronach don’t do it at all, while others like Powers and Edradour only release certain expressions that are not chill-filtered and are naturally colored. Comparing this 12 with the standard 10, which is also very good and naturally colored, makes the case that whisky should never be chill filtered. The flavors are so complex and deep that it’s hard to believe this is only two years older. I must also add that the 46% abv makes a world of difference as well.
This is not a whisky for someone just beginning their journey into tasting single malt Scotches. This is a very brave, unchillfiltered, complex single malt appealing to the sensations: fusial, aromatic, astringent and resinous compounds. An unapologetic whisky.
I was actually quite disappointed with this Edradour .. I personally prefer the standard 10 year. I don't like smokey whiskey at all but I tasted more than a hint of it here and the sherry tones I like in a malt whiskey were not very prevalent here. I won't be buying this again I'm afraid.
