Description

Wm Cadenhead's, the oldest independent bottler in Scotland, presents this 35-year-old Blended Malt Scotch Whisky from their Enigma series. Distilled in 1989 and bottled in January 2025, this release of 168 bottles was matured in a refill sherry butt. The Enigma series features whiskies that are unusual and hard to quantify, often not fitting into their existing lineup.
