GlenDronach 14 Year Old Virgin Oak Wood Finish


18th August 2016

GlenDronach re-release the 14 year old Virgin Oak Wood Finish.

GlenDronach 14 Year Old Virgin Oak Wood FinishGlenDronach has launched a new special edition 14 year old Virgin Oak Wood Finish, well it is actually a re-release of the critically-acclaimed 14 year old Virgin Oak first released back in July 2010.

Bottled at 46% ABV, non chill filtered and with natural colour as we have come to expect from GlenDronach, this single malt was matured initially in European Oak casks then it finished its maturation in a small batch of the Virgin Oak casks, giving the whisky its own unique flavours and aromas.

The result, GlenDronach tell me is a nutty, sweet and fruity dram bursting with banana, melon and coconut.

Sales Director Alistair Walker commented: "Six years ago we broke new ground by releasing four new GlenDronach Wood Finishes, the ¬first to be released by the distillery in its 180-year history.

"They were warmly received worldwide so today we’re re-releasing the 14YO Virgin Oak Wood Finish and I’m confident it will win even more fans."

The GlenDronach 14 Year Old Virgin Oak Wood Finish will be available alongside the current GlenDronach whisky range from specialist online whisky shops such as The Whisky Exchange
