Glendronach Distillery Exclusive Hand-Filled Single Sherry Cask Whisky 18 Year Old · 1993 Vintage

Colour

Deep mahogany with warm amber-copper highlights

Nose

Opulent sherry fragrance floods the glass: dark fruits—raisin, fig, plum—caramelized with orange zest and toffee. Cocoa and espresso weave with toasted almond, warm spice, and a hint of leather, all resting on polished oak in a luxuriant, cask-strength embrace.

Palate

Opulent and full-bodied, this cask-strength Glendronach coats the palate with sherry-soaked richness: fig, raisin and plum, interlaced with dark chocolate, caramel and toasted almond. Spice notes of cinnamon, clove and nutmeg mingle with leather and tobacco. The finish is long and warming, with oak, dried fruit and espresso, leaving a velvety, lingering sweetness.

Finish

An enduring, velvet finish carried by the sherry: dark prune and fig sweetness, notes of cocoa and orange zest, and a warm, peppery glow from cask strength. Dried fruit lingers, with toasted spice, ripe oak and a whisper of leather, slowly fading to a refined, lingering warmth.
