GlenDronach Traditionally Peated Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)
Volume: 700ml ABV: 48% Age: No Age Statement Country: Scotland
From its hillside home in the Scottish Highlands, The GlenDronach Distillery has been creating the finest richly sherried single malts for nearly 200 years. From the germination of the barley to the flow of the purest middle cuts of distilled spirit, every step in the GlenDronach journey to the vat and onwards is taken with meticulous care and immaculate timing. The GlenDronach malt mill, glistening copper mash tun and Oregon pine wash-backs form part of a vigorous but carefully attended process. Their 4 elegant copper pot stills distil and re-distil the finest, richest spirit. What follows is the final secret of GlenDronach’s exceptional character. As was the case in 1826, The GlenDronach Distillery patiently matures its single malt whisky in superior quality sherry casks. Over the years of extended maturation, these carefully seasoned casks help create the unique richly sherried style that GlenDronach is famous for. You can expect a spicy, smoky malt with lots of rich full bodied flavours and very smooth.
The Glendronach Traditionally Peated is a whisky taking us back in time to when the distillery was founded and peat was used in the kiln to dry the barley. The whisky keeps to the traditional GlenDronach sherried style using ex Pedro Ximénez, ex Oloroso sherry and ex Port casks, bottled up at 48% abv.
