- Description
- Another 27-year expression from GlenDronach's 16th single cask batch, this 1990 vintage spent its maturation period in a Pedro Ximénez sherry puncheon until 2017, developing the concentrated fruit and spice that defines the distillery's style. Expect deep amber colour, rich berry compote, and warming spice notes balanced by the drying influence of long cask maturation. The texture is full and coating, with a sustained finish of dried fruit and polished oak. Perfect for those comparing single cask releases from the same era.
