GlenDronach – Cask Strength Batch no.5
The fifth batch of Glendronach's Cask Strength series has been matured in a combination of oloroso- and Pedro-Ximénez-sherry casks and has been bottled at 55.3%. This has notes of apricot, ginger and vanilla.
Tasting
Appearance: Rich amber edged with gold.
Nose: A perfect combination of sweet golden sultanas and rich fig syrup holds a contrasting warmth of ground almonds, orange bitters and a gentle dusting of black pepper.
Palate: Demerara sugar-glazed dark fruits lighten to apricot syrup infused with stem ginger and vanilla. Crisp candied peel and gentle cigar box spices combined with mellow notes of freshly mashed barley add great complexity to the long, classic palate.
Conclusion: The combination of elegant sherry influences and robust Highland style creates a perfect example of the traditional GlenDronach character.
