- Description
- GlenDronach 1989 matured 22 years in a Pedro Ximénez sherry puncheon, this Highland single malt showcases the distillery's renowned affinity for rich sherry cask aging. The Pedro Ximénez influence brings concentrated dark fruit, raisin, fig, and spiced honey to GlenDronach's natural malty sweetness. Full-bodied and layered, with warming spice and deep oak influence that builds on the palate. A benchmark expression of what serious Highland-sherry marriage achieves.
