Caperdonich 20 Jahre alt 1996 Cadenhead's Authentic (2017)

Caperdonich Distillery, established in 1897 beside the North of Scotland Railway in the northwestern corner of Rothes, fired up its two stills just a year later. Unfortunately, it opened during a downturn in whisky demand and closed in 1902, remaining mothballed until 1965 before permanently shutting down in 2002. Demolished in 2011, Caperdonich remains a lost Scottish Speyside malt whisky distillery, with most of its production historically destined for blended Scotch. However, a small volume of Caperdonich whisky still appears through independent bottlers, notably in the Old & Rare single cask releases by Hunter Laing, preserving this distillery’s memory for whisky enthusiasts and collectors worldwide.
