Glendronach 18 YR Allardice Single Malt Scotch Whisky

The nose shows the Pedro Ximenez cask influence with fig and dark chocolate and a light savory note. The palate is smooth and pretty with a creamy touch of dark chocolate covered nuts and dried red fruits, which carry on the long finish. D&M Tasting Notes, March 2019

Bright deep gold with a tawny center. Sweet aromatics of fudge and muscovado sugar. Fruit compote and glacier morello cherries provide added complexity. Rich dark and seductive. Remarkable flavors of stewed fruits and all-spice marry together with classical aged Oloroso and toasted walnut bread and chocolate orange. Tremendously complex and long. Distillery Notes

Spanish Oloroso Sherry Casks. 46% ABV.
