The tenth release in the GlenDronach Grandeur series, created from Master Distiller, Rachel Barrie, from some of the oldest and most unique Pedro Ximénez and Oloroso sherry casks at the GlenDronach distillery. This 27 year old Highland malt has been bottled at 50.1% vol and as per previous releases of Grandeur, each bottle has been numbered by hand, wax sealed and presented in rather stylish housing.
Tasting Notes
GlenDronach Grandeur Batch 10 Tasting Notes
Colour: Intense cherry wood
Nose: A masterful symphony of ripe damson plum, freshly cracked black walnut and concentrated bramble and apple jam. The scent of old antique leather, truffle oil and cedar cigar box waft seductively, as mellow maturity balances the richly sherried sweetness.
Taste: Exquisite sherry cask maturation combining elegance, richness and complexity. Sip morello cherries in dark chocolate with a crescendo of blackberry jus.
Finish: Savour black truffle, old-fashioned treacle gingerbread, prune and walnut oil lingering long into the richly satisfying finish.
