Edradour 25 Year Old 1999 Bordeaux Cask 70cl, 55.4%
Tasting Notes
Colour: Deep ruby-tinted amber. This is a presentation-led inference based on the Bordeaux cask style and bottle imagery.
Nose: Rich dark fruit, red berries, and polished oak with a subtle wine-cask lift. This nose wording is a careful adaptation from retailer descriptions and cask style rather than a full official house note.
Palate: Layers of black cherry, tobacco leaf, and oak spice.
Finish: Silky and sophisticated, with red fruit warmth fading into woody elegance.
Description
Edradour 25 Year Old 1999 Bordeaux Cask 70cl 55.4% is a rare and richly matured Highland single malt Scotch whisky from one of Scotland’s smallest and most traditional distilleries. Distilled in 1999 and bottled in 2025, this special release was created as part of Edradour’s 200th anniversary celebrations, giving it strong appeal for both enthusiasts and collectors.
This bottling comes from a single first-fill Bordeaux hogshead, cask number 816, and was released at its natural cask strength of 55.4% ABV. It is presented in the elegant Ibisco decanter style, with natural colour and no chill filtration, preserving the whisky’s full body, texture, and cask-driven character. Only 271 bottles were produced.
The Bordeaux cask maturation gives Edradour’s naturally weighty Highland spirit a more vinous and fruit-rich profile than the distillery’s better-known sherry-led releases. Retail descriptions point to a rich, indulgent style with black cherry, tobacco leaf, oak spice, and a silky finish, making it especially appealing for drinkers who enjoy mature single malts with a distinctive wine-cask influence.

Collector’s Note
This is exactly the kind of bottle that draws collector attention: a 25-year age statement, a 1999 vintage, a single-cask presentation, an anniversary release, and an outturn of just 271 bottles. The Bordeaux cask also makes it stand out within the Edradour range, especially for buyers who enjoy comparing the distillery’s classic profile with rarer wine-cask expressions. The comparison point is an inference based on the cask style and Edradour’s wider release profile.
