- Description
- GlenDronach's 18-year-old expression marries initial maturation in European oak with a finishing period in Tawny Port casks, delivering jammy fruit depth and complexity beyond the distillery's acclaimed 15-year-old. The extended aging develops rich, layered character typical of Speyside's sherry-cask tradition.
