Glendronach Single Cask

The Glendronach Single Cask is a premium Scottish single malt whiskey that is produced in batched releases with several rare and very limited expressions. Coming in a dark amber color, it delivers a rich taste of sherry combined with various flavors (sweet fruits, nuts, chocolate, coffee) to offer a smooth, delightful balance and complexity.

In the Gaelic language, Glendronach means "valley of the blackberries". The GlenDronach Distillery has been creating the richly sherried single malts for nearly 200 years. Producing whisky since 1826, everything about the Glendronach distillery is about tradition, from the original buildings, the cobbled courtyard and friendly staff. Glendronach tastes a lot like sherry as they only ever use specially selected Spanish sherry casks. Each year the distillery selects a handful of individual casks from the warehouses at GlenDronach to be bottled as a special 'Limited Releases'.
