Launched in 2011, this is a 15-year-old Glendronach single malt finished in tawny Port casks. Bottled at a satisfying 46% ABV, it's layered with rich fruit and red berry character.
This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
Almond, coconut and orange blossom. Hints of rosewater, freshly cut wood, berry fruits, thick, dark honey and a little exotic spice note.
Rich notes of raspberry, espresso and toffee apples. Hints of cocoa, latte, thick malt and black pepper.
Good length with a lingering Cointreau coffee note! Lovely stuff.
Best port finish, but already hard to find
I will admit: I am only judging this on other people's reviews. I have not had a chance to review this one, as I have only tasted the Glendronach Original 12 years old - but I would love to be given the chance.
Had a great time with a glass of the whisky. Thanks to the bartender, i had an opportunity to compare the whisky with a glass of tawny port.
I don't know all the verbiage or the adjectives but I like it. It's probably because I like port. All the reviews sound pretty snobby. I guess if that is what elevates your ego, go for it.
