The Glendronach 50 Year Old Slowly Matured in the finest Pedro Ximenez and Oloroso Sherry Casks for at least Fifty Years Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky ABV 43.8% Vol 70cl / 700ml

This rare expression of The GlenDronach was distilled over fifty years ago in 1971, filled into rare Spanish oak from the bodegas of Jerez in Andalucía, and left to quietly mature in our traditional dunnage warehouses.The GlenDronach Aged 50 Years represents a milestone in the near two-hundred-year history of the distillery. Personally selected by Master Blender Dr. Rachel Barrie, this is the first fifty-year-old expression of The GlenDronach to be released.

Each bottle is hand numbered and presented in a leather case, accompanied by an embossed leather booklet with details about the whisky. Bottle number one in the series was auctioned at the Distillers Company One of One auction in December 2021 to raise money for disadvantaged young people in Scotland.

TASTING NOTES

COLOR: Antique mahogany chestnut

NOSE: Rich and seductive with mellow layers of alluring complexity. Ripe dark cherry and plum are the prelude to a harmony of rolling stone fruit, gentian and a plume of smoldering tobacco – lifted by lilting notes of bramble, orange and cranberry.

TASTE: Dense undertones of dark chocolate, tobacco, and cocoa form an exquisite overture of flavour. A perfect counter comes in a crescendo of elegant plum and luxurious black cherry, enrobed in a swathe of velvet espresso.
