Distillery: Glendronach
Huntly, Scotland
Deep in the East Highland Hills of Aberdeenshire, nestled in the Valley of Forgue, lies The GlenDronach Distillery. The distillery was founded in 1826 on the site of the Boynsmill Estate and the historic Boynsmill House – dating back to 1771 and later renamed Glen House – is still standing proud today.
Named after the bramble thorns we are surrounded by, ‘GlenDronach’ means ‘Valley of the Brambles’ in Scots Gaelic. For nearly two hundred years the distillery has been guarded by a parliament of rooks, who try to nest in the warehouses. Distillery folk believes that as long as these gregarious birds remain, the whisky will prosper.

Tasting Notes
Nose: A delicate mix of ripe autumnal fruits – notably blackberries and red plums. Rich Oloroso sherry and candied orange segments. Spiced oatmeal biscuits and toasted oak fragrances bring excellent weight and balance.
Palate: Resolute flavours of fine Oloroso sherry and bitter chocolate sauce, which has been spread liberally over home-made plum pudding. This is all infused with fabulous spicy notes – cinnamon, allspice and nutmeg. Full bodied with smooth tannins.
Finish: Long and lingering.
