Glendronach Cask Strength Batch 10 70cl 58.6°

Distillery : Glendronach / Country : Scotland / Reference: : 25215

Glendronach Single Malt is characterized by its ageing in Sherry casks, Pedro Ximénez and Oloroso, from Andalusia in Spain.

This Bach 10 whisky, cask strength, perfectly illustrates all the expertise of the distillery. It was selected by Rachel Barrie, the first female Master Blender in Scottish history.

The addition of one or two drops of water reveals a multitude of flavours (cherry noise, honeyed grape, ginger jam) acquired during the long ageing in Spanish oak barrels.

Glendronach means "valley of mulberries" in Gaelic. Located near the town of Huntly east of Speyside in Scotland. This distillery implements traditional methods of production (malting including drying partly with peat fire, as well as the heating of stills). This largely explains the powerful character and strong personality of his Single Malt.

Always very rich, Glendronach whisky is fully revealed in Sherry cask versions. It shows a perfect balance between the notes of Sherry, malted barley and fruits (red fruits).

Glendronach in East Speyside stands apart from other distilleries in the area. Its blackened stone buildings, pagodas and blood-red shutters immediately attract attention. The small stream that runs through the inner courtyard of the distillery reinforces its artisanal and traditional character.

Destroyed by a fire in 1837, it was rebuilt in 1852 and bought in 1920 by Charles Grant, son of the founder of Glenfiddich. Sold in 1960 to William Teacher & Son, it doubled its production capacity in 1966, the number of stills from two to four.

Until it was dormant in 1996, Glendronach was still malting some of its barley. Once again operational since May 14, 2002, its stills are still heated with coal.

Currently, Brown Forman (Jack Daniels) is the owner of the distillery. Rachel Barrie is the Malt Master of the 3 Glendronach, Benriach and Glenglassaugh distilleries.
