Description

Unveiled in mid-2015, GlenDronach's The Hielan' is a rather handsome entry level 8 year old single malt from the Highland distillery's range, matured and married in bourbon and Sherry casks. Delightfully buttery with a good helping of chewy raisin and almond notes at its core, joined by touches of citrus and spice.

Nose

Honey'd malt, vanilla fudge and citrus peels. Slightly chocolate-y raisin notes and a little cinnamon.

Palate

More spice comes through on the palate, but the vanilla-rich buttery elements remain up front. Freshly baked biscuits topped with almonds and plump sultanas.

Finish

Quite long, with Sherried fruit and ginger lasting.

awesome sherry bomb

should of kept this one going. very underrated

Paul Robinson May 13, 2022

Big bold sherry bomb.

I bought this for €27, and at this price it’s very, very good. It’s quite young and high abv, so prepare for a kick. Best deluded with a fair amount of water and given some time in the glass. Sherry, oak, vanilla, ginger, cinnamon, orange, almonds. It’s got a very pungent arrival and a big dry finish, that lingers long. Definitely not a smooth “pleaser to everyone” I guess, but raw quality. A great bold entrance sherry whisky, that deserves attention, and appreciation.

Great nose and taste Bold 8 yr old

Picked this up on a let's have a look see, as the profile sounded interesting and it was going to be discontinued at our BC liquor store and I'm so pleased I did. For an 8 yo this is fantastic. The tasting notes are a great guide, though I can't pick every single reference, overall it seems like it has all the notes and more. Orangey oak (that I love) on the nose, yes buttery or is that a brandy butter hmm, and the sultanas. On the palate soft oak, orange again, dried grapey fruits and the smooth creamy buttery vanilla. On the finish, as the lovely orangey oaky taste lingers quite long, a suggestion that you may have just drunk a sherry with it's hints of nuttiness comes in ….really nice and long. This is a bold youngster! Love that GD put this out with the 8 yo age statement, I'm 8 years and no BS about me, 46%, natural colour and non shill filtered, great. At the price this youngster definitely punches above its weight, and is better than many a 12 & 15 yr old! Well done GD.

Great young un.

Stunning, for the price and age this is marvellous. Little drop of water and give it time and it develops beautifully.

Guy Baldwin Apr 19, 2020

Fantastic sherries malt!

I’ve been a fan of the glendronach since I brought my dad a bottle of the 18 year old a few years back!so I thought I would see what a younger expression would be like!im glad I did it’s wonderful being a higher abv has helped but you get gorgeous sherry sweetness right from the first sip and the finish slowly melts away leaving you wanting more and more!o highly recommend this malt and everything from this distillery wonderful stuff!
