The Glendronach 12 Year Old
If sherried single malt is very much your thing, then The Glendronach is a name you should get to know very well. The distillery resides in the Highlands, busily working away on some incredible expressions, with sherried malt sitting at the core of many of them. This particular dram, The GlenDronach 12 Year Old, is aged in a combination of oloroso and Pedro Ximénez casks from Spain, resulting in generous helpings of dried fruit and cakey spice. The Glendronach's core range was treated to a smart new makeover in 2024, and doesn't it look elegant?
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Rich cereals, struck match, raisin, cinnamon, caramelised sugar. Opens with some sweeter PX and lots of delicious raw ginger before becoming creamier with hazelnuts.
Palate
Fruits, peels, buttery. Pain au chocolat, a little marmalade on toast before becoming firmer and nuttier with spiced raisins.
Finish
Smoky toffee and nut brittle.
