Taste The Culture, Canmore, Alberta, Canada
Alex Bruce enjoyed a weekend of steam trains, Adelphi tasting and highland games at the foot of the snow-swept Rockies...
150 people braved the weather to join Alex Bruce at a tasting of 5 new Adelphis at the 18th Canmore Highland Games. Arriving aboard the famous Canadian Pacific Empress steam engine from Calgary, the guests were greated with 3 inches of snow, and a games in full swing...there has never been a better time for a good dram! The event was organised by the Canadian Friends of Scotland and the Canmore Higland Games.
Independence
Remaining completely independent, Adelphi is able to select its single malt whiskies from as many distilleries as possible.
Adelphi will only put its name to an outstanding whisky.
Rarity
Adelphi bottles single malt Scotch whiskies from only the very best single casks available. No two casks mature their contents the same, and with only 100-700 bottles produced from one cask, Adelphi single malt bottlings are both rare and highly sought after.
Selection
Adelphi believes that only the very best single cask, single malt whiskies are good enough to be bottled on their own. With the help of whisky guru, Charles MacLean, it selects a mere 4% of those that are offered.
Purity
Single malt Scotch whisky is normally reduced to 40% vol. on the bottling line and, as a result, has to be chill-filtered to maintain its clarity. Adelphi, however, only bottles at natural strength. This enables the whisky to remain clear without being chill-filtered and allows the customer to unlock the true flavours by adding water in the glass, rather than losing them on the bottling line.
Adelphi will only bottle single malt whiskies matured in either ex-bourbon or ex-sherry casks. These are known to be the best vessels for Scotch whisky. Adelphi will never attempt to finish a whisky in any other wood, as this will mask the intrinsic flavours of the spirit.
Adelphi never adds colour to its single malt whiskies, and, with the use of minimalist labelling, allows the natural warmth of the whisky to project from the bottle.
Bespoke bottling
In addition, Adelphi selects and bottles single cask single malts for private individuals and corporations, and makes its highly acclaimed Private Stock Blended Scotch Whisky available for bespoke labelling.
Unique whiskies, with unique labels, available to the discerning customer.
