The Glendronach Releases Cask Strength Batch 11

The Glendronach distillery recently announced the release of its latest cask strength Scotch single malt whisky.

The new The GlenDronach Cask Strength Batch 11, according to those behind it, is bottled at 59.8% ABV, having been “matured slowly in fine Pedro Ximénez and Oloroso sherry casks.”

“This eleventh batch of The GlenDronach Cask Strength embodies The GlenDronach‘s celebrated style of Spanish Oak maturation in fine Pedro Ximénez and Oloroso sherry casks from Andalucía,” said Master Blender Dr Rachel Barrie in a prepared statement. “Add a drop or two of water to this latest expression to reveal a cornucopia of flavour – from richly spiced bramble wine and treacle toffee, to lingering Seville orange peel and nutmeg layered with caramel and maraschino cherry.”

As with all expressions of The GlenDronach, the brand noted, “all of the natural colour is drawn from slow maturation in Spanish oak casks.”
