- Description
- Distilled in 1975 and aged for 18 years in sherry casks, this GlenDronach official bottling at 43% ABV captures the sherried Highland style that defined the distillery's reputation. Rich dried stone fruits, warm spice, and polished oak create a balanced, refined palate with a silky texture and lingering finish. The cask maturation is evident without dominating the spirit's character. A benchmark example of mature sherried Scotch.
