For the cask release programme, Master Blender Rachel Barrie selects the finest Spanish oak casks with Batch 17 including single malt whiskies distilled between 1990 and 2007. Each yearly batch represents an exquisite collection of sherry butts and puncheons to be bottled as the GlenDronach ‘Limited Release’ Batch series.
This GlenDronach single cask is one of 828 bottles from Batch 17 that was distilled in November 1992 and then matured for 26 years in a single port pipe.
Rare, collectable and full of stewed fruits and dark chocolate, it’s pure GlenDronach at its very best.
Appearance: Dark ruby.
Nose: Deeply aromatic with cigar box, orange and leather, with slowly emerging layers of dried grass, nutmeg, sandalwood and black cherry.
Palate: Sip baked blackberry and currant with dark chocolate, cherry stone and walnut. Savour Turkish delight dusted with icing sugar lingering unexpectedly into a nutty nougat and cream finish.
