Reviews for The GlenDronach 18 Year Old - Allardice
Top stuff
I have a batch of January 2018 bottle opened for about a month. Comeback to it just yesterday. I was absolutely satisfied, almost overwhelmed by it. Its a masterful dram. I think if you are a sherry head this simply might be it ( for the price anyway). I also had the yamazaki 18 couple of years ago and I must say, yesterday it really reminded me of it a lot. The richness and depth without any burn at 46% abv is hard to beat. But I think this is actually better than yamazaki 18 or at least the same. You will know you drinking something special when you drink it and that's it. My all time favorite

Well first of all I don't know who is selling this for less than $170 because the distributor to retailer price is about $153. Usually anything over $90 retail is above my pay grade but I splurged due to the reviews and I can say this is certainly worth it. The color is darker than any other whisky I can remember seeing, the finish is long and smooth, the sherry notes are balances and not overwhelming like MacAllan 12. This is what I imagine heads of state and royal families would drink, complex bouquet of flavors as other reviews mentioned, if you're looking to drop $200 or so on a whisky this should be at the top of your list. 5 stars

amaaaaaazing
It's amazeballs, served with awesomesauce. Is this the botteling of 2017? Anyone know anything like this (price wise also) ?

Rich, excellently aged
Rich, excellently aged, rounded character. Thick sherry aroma carries through well onto the tongue. Finish is extremely smooth, subsiding possibly too soon.

A well rounded 18 Year Old
This is a truly wonderful sherry whisky, with notes of Cinnamon, Nutmeg, Icing Sugar, Pecans and a hint of lemon on the nose and a huge oily mouthfeel with Orange zest, Dark Chocolate, Red Wine and I have to agree with the thick blueberry note from MoM a rather fantastic whisky especially considering how much you would have to pay for Macallans 18 YO. This, in my opinion, is superior.
