Description:

Established in 1825, Glencadam Distillery is steeped in history, heritage and tradition, handcrafting single malt Scotch whisky in a process that’s remained unchanged for 200 years. In 2021, Glencadam Distillery re-installed a working internal waterwheel, modelled on the original which was used to power the distillery back in in 1825.

One of Scotland’s oldest distilleries, Glencadam was purchased by Angus Dundee Distillers in 2003. Today, visitors can discover Glencadam’s new visitor centre, opened in 2025 to mark the 200th anniversary of the distillery.

Visitors can experience immersive tours and tutored tastings, learning about Glencadam’s centuries-old production methods and the resilient spirit that has sustained Glencadam for 200 years.

Don’t miss a visit to the café and distillery shop during your visit.
