Description
For the cask release programme, Master Blender Rachel Barrie selects the finest Spanish oak casks with Batch 18 including single malt whiskies as old as 30 years and as young as 11 years (from 1990 to 2009). Each yearly batch represents an exquisite collection of sherry butts and puncheons to be bottled as the GlenDronach ‘Limited Release’ Batch series.
The cream of the ‘Batch 18’ crop!!
This GlenDronach single cask is one of only 696 bottles that was laid to rest for 30 magnificent years in a single Pedro Ximenez sherry butt. Rare and collectable, it’s one of the finest Glendronach expressions available on the market today – Investment grade whisky!
Master Blender, Dr Rachel Barrie, said:
“The GlenDronach Cask Bottling Batch 18 is a celebration of the distillery’s time-honoured mastery and a showcase of the finest of what this richly-sherried Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky has to offer”
