Glen Garioch 11 Year Old – Cadenhead's Original Collection
Single Malt Scotch Whiskey – Highlands – 46%
This Glen Garioch 11-Year-Old was bottled in April 2025 by Cadenhead's , Scotland's oldest independent bottler. It's part of the Original Collection and was bottled without chill filtration and without added color , at a balanced 46% ABV .
Maturation took place in a combination of 50% bourbon casks and 50% Fino sherry , with a finish since 2020. Fino is the driest sherry style and enhances the spicy, malty and slightly mineral character that Glen Garioch is known for, without adding sweetness.
