- Description
- This 1976 vintage aged 18 years in a marriage of seasoned oak and sherry casks, bottled at 43% ABV, balances the distillery's characteristic sherried profile with structural complexity from mixed cask maturation. The interplay between oak and sherry creates a nuanced, layered palate. A well-integrated mid-period expression of Glendronach's house style.
