A true delight for those who are sherry fiends. One could crown these the ruler of sherry bombs almost with the amazing blend of cask influence, sherry richness and punchiness. This has all of the above.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBottled in October 2016 exclusively for the UK, this 23-year-old single cask from Glendronach was distilled on 5 March 1993 and aged in an oloroso-sherry butt that yielded 575 bottles. Warming and rich with notes of dark chocolate, stewed barley and fruit cake.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAbout Glendronach\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNestled in the Valley of Forgue, deep in the East Highland Hills, is The GlenDronach Distillery, one of the oldest licensed distilleries in Scotland. They have been dedicated to creating the finest, richly-sherried Single Malts for almost 200 years. The GlenDronach’s past is rich with charismatic custodians, challenging setbacks and triumph through dedication. The GlenDronach was an early pioneer of sherry cask maturation and they are immensely proud of their distillery’s history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe hallmark of their craft is the marriage of robust Highland spirit with the finest Pedro Ximénez and Oloroso sherry casks from Andalucía in Spain. The GlenDronach is a product of time-honoured traditions honed over many years. Their hallmark is to marry robust Highland spirit with the finest oak sherry casks; an exquisite duality that brings exceptional depth and character to the whiskies.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInside the distillery are a traditional rake and plough mash tun, wooden washbacks and four stills which were coal fired until 2005, the last in Scotland to be heated in this way. Today there is just a quiet susurration of steam in the stillhouse, but the oddly shaped wash still and the plain sides of the spirit still cut back on reflux, helping to build weight in the spirit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese days, ex-Sherry casks are the distillery’s signature style. Some is 100% Sherry matured, some is started in ex-Bourbon casks to pick up vanilla sweetness before being racked into ex-Sherry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e58.9% ABV\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e70cl\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Glendronach","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54686996824389,"sku":"5060399684439","price":699.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0941\/9495\/8661\/files\/4833354823.jpg?v=1746548293","url":"https:\/\/b1yyjg-bk.myshopify.com\/products\/glendronach-1993-23-year-old-single-oloroso-sherry-butt-564-highland-single-malt-scotch-whisky-2016-70cl","provider":"Whisky Situation Old","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
