GlenDronach Comes Out With 7th Cask Strength Single Malt
The GlenDronach Distillery has released its 7th batch of Cask Strength Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky, matured in the finest Pedro Ximénez and Oloroso sherry casks and presented at cask strength. This whisky recently won a Silver medal at the 2018 San Francisco World Spirits Competition. This expression continues our tradition of crafting and releasing small batches of The GlenDronach at cask strength each year.
At The GlenDronach, time-honored production methods ensure that the distillery continually crafts a robust, elegant, and full bodied Single Malt. With each Cask Strength release, Master Blender Rachel Barrie selects unique casks before bottling at cask strength, without the addition of water or chill filtration. Cask strength Batch 7 is bottled at 57.9% abv and as is the case for all GlenDronach expressions, has absorbed its colour naturally from the Spanish oak sherry casks.
Master Blender Rachel Barrie said, “The GlenDronach Cask Strength Batch 7 is rich in the rewards of slow, mellow and complex sherry cask maturation in the earthen-floored dunnage warehouses at GlenDronach; the rewards being a sublime aroma, rounded taste, full body and long-lasting finish. With a cask selection spanning Summer, Autumn and Winter distillation at GlenDronach, the resulting marriage delivers a malt with a strong heart, complex taste and smooth mellow maturity, belying it’s 57.9% cask strength.”
The GlenDronach Cask Strength Batch 7 Single Malt will be available worldwide from the end of June, with a retail price of approximately £60 in the UK.
