Glendronach Whisky
Glendronach is a Scottish distillery based in the Highlands and is known for its rich and robust single malt whisky's. The distillery was founded in 1826 by James Allardice and has a long and rich history of making excellent whiskeys ever since.
A major contributor to Glendronach's reputation is the traditional production methods that are still used today. For example, unlike many modern distilleries, the malted barley and sherry casks used for maturation are rolled by hand. This attention to detail and refusal to compromise on quality creates the distinctive flavors that characterize Glendronach's
whisky's.

Glendronach is also known for its heavy emphasis on sherry maturation. Many of the whiskeys made by the distillery are aged in sherry casks from Spain, giving the whiskey a rich, sweet and fruity flavour. This is unlike many other whiskeys which are primarily aged in bourbon casks resulting in a more woody flavour.
Another unique feature of Glendronach is their production line of single cask bottlings. Highly limited edition, these bottlings offer a rare look at the different characteristics of sherry maturation and how it affects the flavor of the whisky. These bottlings are highly sought after by collectors and whiskey enthusiasts.
