The GlenDronach Cask Strength, Batch 11, is the 11th release in the Cask Strength Series. This expression has been matured in a combination of fine Pedro Ximénez and Oloroso sherry casks. The GlenDronach Cask Strength offers connoisseurs a deep insight into the distillery’s signature character, by bottling at the whisky’s natural cask strength, as was the custom before the turn of the 20th Century. Add a drop or two of water to reveal a cornucopia of flavour – from richly spiced bramble wine and treacle toffee, to lingering Seville orange peel and nutmeg layered with caramel and maraschino cherry. Such is the reward of our eleventh batch of The GlenDronach Cask Strength, a richly sherried Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky.
As with all expressions of The GlenDronach, all of the natural colour is drawn from slow maturation in Spanish oak casks.
70cl at 59.8% Vol.
