Description
Here’s a well-priced Cadenhead’s expression from their Enigma series that was matured for 14 years in a combination of refill Oloroso sherry butts and refill bourbon hogsheads. Bottled at a punchy 53.9% ABV, it’s a solid drinker that will appeal to a broad range of palates.
About Cadenhead’s Enigma series.
The whiskies in Cadenhead’s Enigma series are just that – unusual, hard to quantify, perhaps even slightly contradictory. They can be single casks, vattings of multiple casks, blends, blended malts or whatever else the team can find that doesn’t fit into their existing bottling line-up, but meets Cadenhead’s only essential criteria – that they’re delicious.
