We take great pride in all of our whisky, but occasionally James MacTaggart, our Distillery Manager, discovers a cask that truly stands out as the finest example of the Distillers art and oak cask in perfect harmony. The influence of the cask on the final character of whisky is widely acknowledged and one of the key aspects of his job is to determine when the right balance between the spirit and the wood has been achieved. Only the most exceptional examples of our Single Malt are approved for bottling as our Premium Cask Selection.
In a secluded spot in Aberdeenshire, nestled in the rolling East Highland hills, you’ll find The GlenDronach Distillery, one of Scotland’s oldest distilleries. The GlenDronach Distillery is famous for producing richly sherried single malt whiskies of inimitable and individual character.
This is a relatively complex whisky with some spicy, dried fruit flavours coming from the sherry barrels and vibrant honey and orange flavours coming from the bourbon casks.
Fresh and clean, with notes of vanilla, ripe barley, honey, caramel apple, and toasted coconut. Creamy and mouth-coating in texture, leading to a pleasingly dry, spicy oak finish. Very drinkable, yet satisfying.
A bottling of single malt whisky from the Isle of Arran distillery bottled to honour Scotland's favourite son, the bard himself, Robert Burns. Bottled at 43% and created to be malty and sweet with a 'spicy twist on the finish'.
