GlenDronach 31 yo Grandeur

The whisky, bottled as ‘Grandeur’, has been specially selected by Master Distiller Billy Walker from some of the oldest and most unique Oloroso casks at GlenDronach.

This superb expression, at 45.8% vol. cask strength, is a classical representation of the smooth, complex and full bodied style that the GlenDronach Distillery is famous for. The GlenDronach Grandeur has been matured in top quality Oloroso sherry casks for 31 years. Individually numbered by hand, each bottle is a one off and truly unique.

The whisky resides in a beautiful decanter style bottle with a wax dipped closure and is housed in a deluxe wooden box. To finish off the package a certificate of authenticity and collectors postcards are included.

Appearance:

Deep autumn gold with a warm amber glow.

Nose:

A tremendous concoction of fruits, nuts and berries enveloped in a coffee mocha glaze. Sublime sweet sherry notes interact beautifully with sticky date pudding aromas.

Palate:

Very big and gutsy flavours adorn each mouthful, yet with perfect balance and refinement. Initial spiced orange flavours and rich old Oloroso sherry are met mid-palate with roasted almonds, coffee and treacle. The dry concentrated flavours from the almonds and the Oloroso sherry are balanced in perfect harmony with sultanas, chocolate and honey.

Conclusion:

This is a rewarding, memorable and captivating GlenDronach expression for a special occasion.
