Intro:
Distilled by GlenDronach in 1993, this malt was bottled after 23 years of aging in a PX Sherry Butt (#641) and was selected by The Whiskey World. Bottled without any dilution, coloring or filtering.
-
Nose:
Deep, syrupy, loaded with toffee. Opulent and decadent, packed with complexity. Honey, heather, tobacco, pungent sherry and jammy fruits. Plum, fig, blackberry and cherry cordials.
-
Taste:
Rich mouth feel, no ethanol. Syrupy once again - rests heavy on the palate, coats effortlessly. Tons of cocoa, plum, fig and blackberry. Hint of pepper, tobacco, oak.
-
Finish:
Long, rich finish. A bit of dry oak, some pepper, toffee. Sweet cream, blackberry and chocolate covered cherries.
-
Overall:
Fantastic, though not the best I’ve seen from GlenDronach - hardly a complaint. This demonstrates excellent balance that GlenDronach is known for while really serving up a dram that feels like a treat. Top notch.
