- Description
- Distilled in 1972 and aged for 18 years in sherry casks, this GlenDronach official bottling at 43% ABV exemplifies the sherried Highland style the distillery is celebrated for today. Expect rich dried fruit, toasted oak, and subtle leather notes with a warming, mouth-coating texture from decades in active cask. The balance between cask influence and spirit character is refined rather than overwhelming. A classic sherried malt for evening contemplation.
