Tomatin 12yo 54.1%
Bourbon hogshead
Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky

From our new Authentic Collection release: £49.00

Thoughts from our Tasting Panel:

“A highland dram with an expected tropical fruit nature that you can identify immediately. Kiwi skin and papaya can be tasted on the palate, alongside a custard note which should suggest the kind of texture the panel encountered. Gooseberries and poached pears are on the finish, alongside apple notes which had carried through from the nose - indicating a consistent and settled dram.”

Ardmore 10yo 54.8%
Bourbon hogshead
Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky

From our new Authentic Collection release
£49.00

Thoughts from our Tasting Panel:

“Distilled in Ardmore, located in the village of Kennethmont, in rural Aberdeenshire, this 10yo bourbon matured whisky displays salty, maritime notes (such as fishing nets on the nose), complemented by slight fruity hints, indicated by pomegranate on the palate and pear on the finish. The peat grows in the finish too, which also has a nutty note. A warming dram that can appeal to newcomers and experienced drammers alike.”

Our Ukraine Edition of Springbank 10 Year Old will go on sale (IN-STORE ONLY) from noon on Saturday 2nd April 2022 in the following locations:

Springbank Distillery, Campbeltown
Cadenhead's Shop, Edinburgh
Cadenhead's Shop, London

We have seen great demand for these charitable bottles which are quite limited in number. Please be aware that we cannot guarantee that anyone travelling to purchase these will be successful. It is entirely up to you as an individual to make that choice.

Bottle Price: £60

Alternatively, you may wish to make a donation direct to the fund here: https://donation.dec.org.uk/ukraine-humanitarian-appeal

We will be verifying IDs to complete the front label in order to ensure that these bottles are bought for the intended purpose of supporting the people of Ukraine, rather than for profiteering on the secondary market. We are pleased some businesses have already voiced that they will not be accepting these for auction in the future.

Dear customers,

Due to unforeseen circumstances our shop will be closed Monday 7th March. Normal hours will resume on Tuesday 8th March.
Apologies for any inconvenience caused.

Good morning everyone!

I'm sure many of you will remember our ex-colleague, Andrew Carlin, who worked here in the Edinburgh Shop. Andrew has always been known for his big heart and his kind acts of generosity, always looking to help out in any way he can. And thats what brings us to the main topic of this post...

Andrew is climbing Kilimanjaro (the world’s highest freestanding mountain (5895m)) in August next year for Dip Deep Africa!
Where Dig Deep work, 8 out of every 10 people lack access to clean water, safe toilets and good hygiene. Most residents live in rural communities and spend hours every day walking to collect dirty water or find a safe place to relieve themselves. This is something I am sure most of us could not imagine having to do daily and the work done by Dig Deep is vital to helping lift people out of poverty.
For a child, this can mean the difference between dropping out of primary school and completing a full education.

Andrew is now fundraising for the next wee while and would massively appreciate it if anyone could donate to my fundraising page which has just gone live:
https://dig-deep.enthuse.com/pf/andrew-carlin

Andrews overall fundraising target is £2700
- 50% of which goes directly to unlocking the potential of communities in rural Kenya
- 50% of which goes towards his expedition costs (not including flights, he is paying for these himself)

Any help is much appreciated!

Dear Customers

It’s our pleasure to announce we'll be back to help with all your whisky/rum/gin needs. Our doors will be back open as of Monday 26th April, operating between the hours of 10:30-17:30 Monday to Saturday. We've been working hard behind the scenes to ensure the re-opening of our shop is safe for both customers and staff, adhering to the guidelines from the Scottish Government.

In planning to open the shop back up again, our top priority is the safety and wellbeing of our customers and staff. So the shop may look a little different when you come visit us. With that, we have implemented the following measures to ensure the highest levels of safety and hygiene.

-The shop will undergo rigorous cleaning with cleaning spot checks carried throughout the working day.
- Appropriate perspex screens will be fitted at serving point.
- Please use the hand sanitiser located at the entrance/exit of the shop.
- The shop will be limited to one customer with a maximum of two persons in the shop at once as long as they are from the same household.
- Face coverings will be worn by staff. Customers will be refused entry without any face covering.
- Customers exempt from wearing a mask should arrange appointment in advance to allow us to accommodate.
- Scottish Government social distancing guidelines will be adhered to at all times.
- You will be given 15 minutes to shop where we will give you our best recommendations and help.

We are still minimising contact at every possible step of your retail experience which is why we cannot offer any alcohol sampling in the shop at this time. We will still be accepting cash payments but we would prefer contactless/card payments to again minimise contact. We will of course continue to monitor the best advice and adjust our services as required, offering customers appointments to visit shop or alternatively you may order by email and telephone for delivery or collection during opening hours.

We thank you for all the continued and look forward to hearing

Kind regards,

Cadenheads Edinburgh

Good evening all!

Currently we have no news of any more bottlings breaching the doors of 172. The Local Barley was mentioned earlier in the month by our friends at Springbank, and has since been fully reserved. However, we still have a fantastic selection of spirits on our shelves, such as the recently released second batch of the Original Collection.

We are currently only open for deliveries and local organised collections with our current working hours being Monday - Friday 10:30am-17:30pm. Deliveries are only available within the UK mainland for a flat rate of £10.00 (up to 12 bottles).

Our doors may not be open for you to peruse our fine goods, but our price list will hopefully suffice for now. So check out what we have to offer through the link below.

If looking to order, please try email first as our phone is limited to one call at a time. Please try and leave a contact number with your order, and we will try to get back to you as soon as possible.

We look forward to hearing from you all!
