Edradour Caledonia Selection 12 Year Old is a richly sherried Highland single malt from Edradour Distillery in Perthshire — Scotland’s smallest traditional distillery, hidden in the heart of the Perthshire hills witatchless commitment to authentic small-scale production — presenting sultanas and figs balanced with honey on the nose, liquid Christmas cake and toasted almonds with orange spice on the palate, and a gently warming, spicy, and dry finish.
Edradour Distillery in the picturesque model village of Edradour, Perthshire, is one of Scotland’s most distinctive small-production Highland distilleries — its tiny scale and traditional methods producing a characteristically rich, full, and sherried character that larger distilleries cannot replicate. The Caledonia Selection uses Oloroso sherry casks for a deeply integrated and warming Christmas cake richness. A little water opens up the depth and complexity as the fruitiness and Oloroso sherried wood comes to the fore. Browse the full Scotch whisky collection at Wooden Cork.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is Edradour called Scotland’s smallest distillery?
Edradour’s production scale is genuinely tiny — its copper pot stills produce approximately 100,000 litres of pure alcohol per year, compared with the millions of litres produced by large commercial distilleries. This authentic small-scale production is maintained deliberately for quality and character rather than commercial volume. Order online with fast shipping.
