The firm of William Cadenhead Limited, Wine and Spirit Merchants, was founded in 1842 and was in the ownership of the same family until it was taken over by the well known Campbeltown firm of J & A Mitchell & Co. Ltd who own Springbank Distillery. The premises were in Netherkirkgate in Aberdeen and although the street numbers were changed from time to time the premises were the same and indeed were almost unaltered during their 130 years of trading in Aberdeen.
Cadenhead Kyro Rye 6 Years Old
47.1% abv
Kyrö Distilling Company was founded in Isokyrö, Finland (with the original idea being conceived in a sauna) and it makes its Rye Whisky from Finnish wholegrain rye.
They began distilling in an old dairy (after they removed the cars that were being stored in there) and the spirit became recognisable due to its pepperiness, balanced with notes of caramel & vanilla.
With initial sweet notes of milk chocolate and honey, this Finnish rye whisky develops with a savoury finish with a hint of spice featuring notes of mint, rye bread and pink peppercorns.
Nose: Orange zest, milk chocolate, fresh bread and fruit loaf.
Flavour: Chocolate Orange, cinnamon, morello cherries and honey notes.
Finish: Soft sweetness, basil, mint and spicy notes with pink peppercorn.
