The GlenDronach 21 Year Old - Parliament Whisky

GenlDronach 21 YO is the pinnacle of sherry whiskey.

Probably the best whisky I have ever tasted. Beats the Macallan 18 and 25 and is much cheaper

I was given a 24 whisky tasting selection some time ago. I drank them blind, scored them and then looked at what I'd just tasted. The Parliament came out top, above some big names and my previous favourite, which came second. Six years on, my partner has just bought me a whole bottle for my big birthday. Had a dram at Christmas and was not disappointed. If anything is was better than I remember. They told me it was being discontinued. So I immediately ordered another one which has just arrived. I will savour every mouthful.

I am now a believer. The Glendronach Parliament is one of my favourite whisky’s of all time. I think it punches well above its weight in this bracket and I enjoyed drinking it more than the Macallan 18 Sherry cask which is now my second favourite of all time. Do yourself a favour and get a bottle as it is simply amazing.

It has a really good taste and scent,
The price went up like crazy
Whiskey that's a shame

Snapped up two bottles recently. Distillery is running really low on warehouse stock. Who knows how the new spirit will be once they start bottling that from later this year. Sadly becoming increasingly expensive. Almost 200 at auctions now.

I used to prefer Allardice to this but since the 18 year old started getting bottled using the new distillate, this one has now completely overtaken the 18 year old. It's a little unfair as the 21 is actually much older - more like 25 or 26 year old but can't complain about that.

Buy this while the stock lasts. This is the last of the really older stock. The whisky in these bottles is at-least 26 year old. From next year, GD will be able to use their new stock distilled in 2002 to bottle this dram. 2022 bottling will have whisky that is at least 27 year old. Look up the Glendronach chart on google. By the way, what a fantastic whisky.

I sampled this whisky back when Billy Walker was on the bottle - Its not these days but will become a dying breed as soon like the Alladice will be replaced soon with an interior chill filtered version - so could not resist putting one in the cupboard for a special tasting night - a rich fantastic quality whisky which upto now is still unchill filtered

For about five years or so the Glendroach 18 year has been my favorite scotch over many (drank over 5 bottles), including Macallan 18. Since the 18 is rumored to be at least 23 years old, I thought the 21 could not be better, and other reviews said the 18 was better. But, I just decided go see for myself with expectations low. I was blown away. This stuff deserves to be called the nectar of the Gods. It does not feel hot for the high ABV, and is smooth and sweet, and more complex than the 18. The only bad thing is I am now spoiled now.
