Founded in 1825 under the name Glenforres and renamed Edradour in 1837, this distillery was purchased in 2002 by Andrew Symington, founder of the Signatory Vintage trading company.

Since 2018, its single malt has been produced in a brand-new adjacent distillery. A precise replica of the old one, it is equipped with a Morton mash cooler, a unique model in Scotland, eight Oregon pine washbacks, a wash still with a capacity of 4,200 liters, and a spirit still with a capacity of 2,200 liters.

Wonderfully oxidative, this version will undoubtedly appeal to fans of old-style sherry casks. All in delicacy, its aromatic and flavor palette is particularly marked by a multitude of fruits, the diversity of which is matched only by its eloquence.

Nose : Rich, creamy. A very nice rancio (cherry brandy), dark chocolate, cinnamon, citrus zest, beeswax, heather honey, and dried fruits (date, fig, raisin) create an aromatic ensemble that is both warm, indulgent, and resplendent with maturity.

Palate : Clear, lively. Full-bodied, the taste palette reveals vanilla and roasted (coffee) notes. A fine layer of salted caramel gradually coats the palate. Over time, the dried fruits from the aromatic palette return strongly. This indulgent interlude extends to flavors of curry and infused herbs (chamomile, lime tree).

Finish : Long, robust. Refreshed by citrus zest (lemon, orange), the tasting evolves into more herbal (tobacco, straw) and spiced (clove, Espelette pepper) registers. Some exotic fruits (mango, persimmon) then provide a lot of vigor to a retro olfaction that is also resinous (pine, eucalyptus).
