Cadenhead Chairmans Stock Aultmore Glenlivet Aged 15 Years 109.4 Proof
From Scotland’s oldest independent whisky bottler, William Cadenhead Ltd, this Aultmore Glenlivet Chairman’s Stock release was drawn from a single Ruby Port hogshead and bottled at 54.7% ABV after 15 years in wood. Cadenhead’s reputation for selecting exceptional casks comes from its founding in Aberdeen in 1842 and a long tradition of bottling spirited single cask whiskies with no chill filtration or added colouring, letting true character shine through. The Chairman’s Stock range showcases rare casks once held in the private collection of the late Chairman Hedley G Wright and released in small batches to preserve limited stocks. On the nose this Aultmore opens with bright orchard fruit and soft red berry sweetness balanced by delicate floral notes and fresh hay. The influence of the Ruby Port cask is clear on the palate with pomegranate molasses, hot honey and a light spice that accentuates the natural weighty profile of Aultmore spirit. The finish is savory and lingering with tangy chutney and gentle oak tannin drawing out the complexity. This is a bold and expressive cask strength whisky that illustrates both the quality of the underlying distillate and the keen cask selection for which Cadenhead is known.
