This 9th release in the Grandeur series from The GlenDronach has been specially selected by Master Blender, Rachel Barrie, from some of the distillery's most remarkable sherry casks from 1990, 1992 and 1993.
Matured entirely in sherry casks, only 1,487 bottles of this Speyside single malt have been produced, each one individually hand-numbered.
The GlenDronach Grandeur Batch 9 is 48.7% ABV, non chill filtered and, as always for The GlenDronach, of natural colour, for authenticity, richness and texture.
Please note this is limited to 1 bottle per customer.
Nose: A carefully woven tapestry of stone fruit, baked quince and glazed cherries on a seductive bed of sandalwood, roast chestnuts and subtle muskscented leather. The freshness of oak balsam lifts and lengthens throughout, sustaining the exceptional balance and complexity.
Palate: An elegant, deep and perfectly integrated palate combines a myriad of sherry cask tastes in each sip; an initial burst of rich sherry-laced fruitcake intriguingly opens up to reveal baked orange, sultana and luscious black cherries.
Finish: As time slowly passes, the taste lengthens and deepens towards an elegant dark chocolate mint, raisin and angelica root velvet finish.
