Glendronach Traditionally Peated 70cl 48°
Unlike the traditional, unpeated Glendronach whisky, this Traditionally Peated Single Malt has been exceptionally distilled using malted and peated barley. Aged in Bourbon casks and finished in Oloroso and Pedro Ximenés sherry casks, the Traditionally Peated Glendronach pays tribute to peat that was used to dry malted barley in the distillery's early years.
The principles of production are "old-fashioned", the same as two hundred years ago, the most important being to burn peat in the stove at the end of the barley malting process.
The subtle peated notes of this intriguing expression blend in with the fruity character of Glendronach and the rich notes of Sherry obtained by ripening.
This Single Malt presents a new style for a finer approach of the peated whiskies of Speyside.

For almost 200 years, The Glendronach distillery has stood proudly in the north of Scotland, in the mysterious “valley of the mulberries” from which it partly takes its name. It was in 1826 that its founder, James Allardice, shared his very first whisky with the world. Since then, generations of craftsmen have remained faithful to the same traditional methods, relying on their intuition and five senses to push the boundaries of excellence ever further.
The Glendronach's unmistakable signature comes from an exceptional duality: the marriage of rugged Highland spirit and Spanish elegance, carried by Single Malts slowly aged in the finest Andalusian sherry casks. The result is a crescendo of surprising flavors, an aromatic revelation recognized by connoisseurs the world over.
Today marks the opening of a new chapter in this perpetual quest for excellence, with a redesigned visual identity that highlights more than ever the expertise of The Glendronach team and its multi-award-winning Master Blender, Rachel Barrie.
