Burnside 1989 – Cadenhead's 175th Anniversary
28 years old · 47.3% · 132 bottles
This Burnside 1989 is an exceptional bottling from Cadenhead's 175th Anniversary range , released especially to mark the 175th anniversary of the world's oldest independent bottler.
Burnside is a blended malt that combines spirits from Balvenie and Glenfiddich —two Speyside icons—carefully selected and matured in a bourbon barrel . No chill-filtration, no commercial frills: pure craftsmanship, as Cadenhead's has practiced for generations.
With 28 years of maturation, this whisky displays a distinctly classic style: depth, elegance, and perfectly integrated oak. This isn't a modern "sherry bomb," but a refined, old-school Speyside with balance and length.
