Inchgower 12 Year Old – Cadenhead's Original Collection (2022)

Inchgower 12 Year Old – Cadenhead's Original Collection

This Inchgower 12 Year Old was bottled by Cadenhead's as part of their Original Collection and matured in a carefully crafted vatting of 60% sherry, 20% bourbon, and 20% Madeira . This makes it a distinctive yet perfectly controlled Speyside malt, with significantly more depth than the classic Inchgower style.

The nose reveals dark fruits, raisins, orange peel, and a light nuttiness , followed by honey and a soft spice. The palate is full and layered: sherry sweetness, dried fruit, toffee, subtle bitterness, and a slightly salty edge —typical of Inchgower, but nicely rounded out here by the Madeira influence. The 46% alcohol content provides body without being harsh. The finish is medium to long, with spicy warmth, cocoa, and a dry finish .

This is a bottle for enthusiasts who crave a little more complexity , without it becoming heavy or tiring. No marketing, no coloring, no filtering – just honest, select craftsmanship , as you'd expect from Cadenhead's.
