The Glendronach Grandeur Batch 12 is a splendid 29-year-old single malt whisky, carefully matured in hand-selected Oloroso sherry casks under the expert supervision of master blender Dr. Rachel Barrie. This rare and opulent expression from the renowned Glendalough Distillery, based in the Highlands, epitomizes luxury and craftsmanship. Bottled at 49.2% ABV, this whisky presents an extraordinary depth of flavor and complexity, making it one of the distillery's most exquisite offerings to date.
On the nose, the whisky reveals a rich and intricate bouquet, with prominent notes of sweet damson jam, marasca cherries, and cocoa powder. These initial aromas transition into deeper nuances of sherry, cocoa, damson plum, glazed cherries, dates, walnut, and fine arabica coffee, delivering a sensory experience that is both layered and satisfying.
The palate is a harmonious blend of flavors, featuring raisin and dark plum intertwined with cocoa and treacle, complemented by cherry brandy and espresso. As you savor each sip, the complexity unfolds, revealing hints of worn leather, Medjool dates, and freshly ground coffee. The finish is long and rewarding, leaving lingering notes of tobacco and sherry-soaked walnuts, ensuring a memorable end to each tasting experience.
