The

while stocks last.
William
Morrison's Tasting Notes:
Nose:
Vanilla and sherried fruitcake - burnt
raisins and sultanas, a hint of toasted
almond and some mild spicy treacle
toffee.
Taste:
A rich sherried fruit delivery, the
delicious dark sherried fruit - burnt
raisins, sultanas and cherries are
joined by some plum, a touch of mildly
zesty orange, a little nuttiness, a
touch of vanilla and behind the
fruitiness is a lovely touch of honey
and spice.
Finish:
A deliciously long finish with the burnt
raisins and sultanas hanging in there
for an age, some lovely lingering
treacle toffee and of course some mature
oak clinging to the palate until the
end.
Comment:
A lovely big sherried GlenDronach, not a
huge sherry bomb but it really is a
mature sherried pleasure in on the
palate and the long finish simply
extends that pleasure. Another cracking
GlenDronach single cask whisky.
