Glendronach Cask Strength Batch 12 – Highland Single Malt Whisky 58,2%

Glendronach Cask Strength Batch 12 is pure sherry magic at cask strength. Here you get an intense and deep Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky, matured exclusively in Pedro Ximénez and Oloroso sherry casks and bottled at natural cask strength at a powerful 58.2%. This is whisky in its most authentic form – no dilution, no compromise.

This bottling pays homage to the classic style that was common before the early 20th century, where whisky was bottled straight from the cask and delivered at full strength and maximum character. The result is a concentrated and full-bodied experience, where the sherry casks unfold with dark fruit, spice and silky depth.

The combination of the sweetness of Pedro Ximénez casks and the dry, nutty complexity of Oloroso casks creates a balanced yet powerful whisky. Batch 12 is made for the experienced whisky connoisseur looking for intensity, structure and a long, warm finish.

The history of the house

Glendronach is known as one of the Highlands’ most iconic sherry distilleries. Since its founding in 1826, the house has built a reputation for deep, rich and age-worthy whiskies, with Spanish sherry casks playing a starring role. The Cask Strength range is a tribute to the distillery’s heritage and craftsmanship – a modern interpretation of the historic way of bottling whisky, where strength and flavor were left undiluted.
