Glendronach Grandeur #010
Highland Single Malt Whisky
Founded in 1826, The GlenDronach Distillery in the Forgue valley in the Aberdeenshire was named after the Dronac burn, which flows through the grounds of the distillery. Glendronach was one of the very first licensed destilleries and has a history of enterprising owners from the flamboyant James Allardice to the ambitious Walter Scot. Alladice was a pioneer of sherry cask maturation and would have celebrated today´s superb Glendronach.
Although times has moved on, the processes used to create The Glendronach have remained largely uncharged.
The whisky bottled as The Glendronach "Grandeur" has been specially selected by our Master Blender, Rachel Barrie, from some of our oldest and most unique sherry casks at Glendronach. A selection of barrels, hogshead, puncheons and butts have been maturing in our traditional dunnage warehouses since the 1960´s, and it is the most extraordinary and remarkable of sherry casks that have been chosen for this very special bottling of twenty-seven-year-old whisky. This superb expression is a fantastic representation of the smooth, complex and full-bodied style that The Glendronach Distillery is famous for. Individual numbered by hand, each bottle is a one-off and truly unique. We are delighted with this exceptional bottling and believes that it is to be sipped, savoured and enjoyed.
