- Description
- An early 1990s distillery bottling of GlenDronach 18yo from the 1973 vintage, presented at 43% ABV in the sherried style the distillery is known for. Extended maturation in sherry casks builds rich dried fruit, polished oak, and warming spice with a full, mouth-coating texture. The age and cask influence create a refined, concentrated expression with a long, complex finish. A mature sherried Scotch for unhurried sipping.
