Glendronach Single Pedro Ximenez Cask #3326 Whisky (UK Exclusive) 19 Year Old · 1995 Vintage

Colour

Deep, glossy mahogany amber with coppery highlights and a ruby glow.

Nose

Cola cubes soaked in dark sherry mingle with cherry and nut fruit cake, beef consomme and dark leather. Rich, polished oak supports earthy notes, while nut brittle, treacle and bitter coffee linger on the nose.

Palate

Powerful palate of spiced mincemeat and anise, with mulchy forest-floor notes and old oak. Leather-bound depth sits alongside cola cubes and meat stock, peppery glazed ham, glace cherry, and roasted nuts in treacle.

Finish

Long, indulgent finish of treacle toffee and bitter chocolate, yielding to espresso and anise, with spiced nuts and dark fruit cake lingering. Burnt twiglets and sappy, rich sherry oak weave through savoury meat notes, a whisper of menthol and a Coke-like fizz that lingers into the afterglow.
