Review of
The Whisky Shop exclusive
GlenDronach 1992 26 Year Old and it is a
stunning sherried dram.
There
has been a few top notch GlenDronach 1992
vintage single cask releases over the
past few years and this recently released
GlenDronach 1992 26 Year Old has been
bottled exclusively for
The Whisky Shop
Distilled 15 May 1992 and fully matured
for 26 years in a single Sherry Cask No.
81 and bottle in 2019 at a cask strength
of 50% ABV.
A limited release of 469 individually
numbered bottles, the deliciously dark
single malt is naturally coloured and
non chill-filtered and is priced at
£239.
William
Morrison's Tasting Notes::
Nose:
Rum soaked, dark chocolate coated
sultanas. some distant coffee, a faint
touch of toffee with a liquorice edge
and a very delicate smokiness lurking in
the background.
Taste:
Deliciously sherry rich, dark treacle
toffee infused with rum soaked raisins,
orange, the barley sugar manages to
break through the layers of sherry along
with some vanilla and honey. Some lovely
late oak spice, cinnamon and ginger add
to the pleasure.
Finish:
A long finish, the juicy sherry notes
hangs in there for an age before before
fading leaving some lovely lingering
cinnamon and ginger and some mildly
drying, and still vibrant for its age,
oak spice.
Comment:
An absolutely delicious sherried
pleasure from the GlenDronach, with
expressions such as this surely the
GlenDronach distillery is "King of the
Sherried Single Malts" these days when
you consider age, bottling strength,
number of bottles in the release, price
and most importantly the quality of the
release would you really consider taking
a chance on the likes of a Macallan. A
stunning GlenDronach sherried dram which
is not to be missed if your pockets are
deep enough and you are looking to spoil
yourself.
