Glendronach, just like the 15 year old has now renamed as Allardice, named after the distillery's founder. The 18 year old, or as it is now know, Allardice is the third expression in the Glendronach core range.
This exceptional single sherried malt is non-chill filtered and of natural colour. Matured in the finest Spanish Oloroso sherry casks and bottled at 46%, this sublime richly sherried malt is truly unforgettable.
Colour: Bright deep gold with a tawny centre.
Nose: Sweet aromatics of delicious fudge and muscovado sugar. Fruit compote and cherries provide added complexity.
Palate: Rich and seductive, there are remarkable flavours of stewed fruits and all-spice marry together with classical aged Oloroso and toasted walnut bread and chocolate orange.
Finish: Quite long with touches of toasted oak, ginger, faint sultana and dry earth.
