Cambus 29 Year Old Oloroso Cask Finish (Darkness) | 500ML

Well-sherried single grain Scotch from the long-lost Cambus Distillery, independently bottled for the Darkness range. This grand old grain spent 29 years maturing, including a stay in Oloroso sherry casks, imparting a wealth of juicy fruit to the creamy grain and spice at its core. A cracking addition to the Darkness range, spot-on for all the Lowland fans out there.

Cambus 29 Year Old Oloroso Cask Finish (Darkness) | 500ML Tasting Notes

Nose: Dried fruit granola with tangy cranberries and diced dates. Sweet wafts of chocolate raisins follow buttery shortbread, with a touch of pepper in the distance.

Palate: Dried berries and candied fruits continue, with sweet notes of buttered corn bringing an oily texture. Fiery prickles of ginger and black pepper tangle with creamy butterscotch.

Finish: Yet more fresh sweetcorn, drowned in herby butter, with chocolate cereal and warming spices bubbling beneath.

Distillery Information

The Cambus distillery dates back to the early 1800s - it was opened in 1836 in a village that shares its name near Alloa. Here it quietly produced its whiskies, becoming one of the first members of the Distillers Company Ltd. In 1913, a fire destroyed much of the distillery, forcing it to close until 1938. Cambus produced grain whisky, a lot of which made its way into blends, though you can still find independent bottlings of their single grain if you’re lucky (it’s fantastic stuff). The distillery was closed in 1993 by its owner, UDV.
