The Glendronach 1990 Single Cask Batch 11 is a 24-year-old whisky, distilled on May 30, 1990, and bottled in November 2014. This single malt whisky showcases the exceptional craftsmanship of the renowned Glendronach distillery, located in Forgue near Huntly in the Highlands of Scotland. Established in 1826, the distillery is celebrated for its traditional methods and meticulous use of sherry casks for aging. This particular expression was matured in a single Pedro Ximenez Sherry Puncheon, resulting in a whisky with unmatched depth and complexity. The influence of the sherry cask is unmistakable in the whisky's rich flavor profile, which includes notes of dried apricots, dark chocolate-covered coffee beans, and robust sherry characters. Hints of nutmeg, cinnamon, and clove oil add an everlasting depth, making this whisky truly unique. The Glendronach distillery is renowned for its use of carefully selected sherry casks, which are handmade at distinguished sherry bodegas in southern Spain, specifically in Jerez de la Frontera and Sanlúcar de Barrameda. With a rich history, having been owned by various entities including Teachers and Sons, BenRiach Distillery Company, and Allied Distillers, the distillery has overcome numerous challenges and is now protected as a category B-listed building. This particular bottling, with an alcohol by volume of 53.8%, is one of only 606 bottles drawn from cask #1020. It is a rare and unique expression, not to be missed by whisky connoisseurs.

Beautiful Glendronach, with dark chocolate and some red fruits dominating. Very pleasant. The nose is full and complex, with a lot of chocolate, coffee, earthy notes, and plums. The taste is strong yet balanced, featuring pepper, plums, chocolate, and red fruits with a subtle sour note underneath. The finish is powerful and long, with lingering notes of pepper, coffee, and chocolate. This is a must-try for any whisky connoisseur.
