TheGlenDronach12YearOldOriginal(700mL)

<p>A Quintessential GlenDronach. </p><p><em>James Allardice</em> was the second person to apply for a license to distill Whisky in Scotland, way back in 1826. Them’s some good times, my friend! Over the years, The GlenDronach has been owned by a veritable Who’s-Who of the historic lineage of Whisky masters; from Walter Scott, to Captain Charles Grant, and William Teacher & Sons.</p><p>The late 1990’s saw some troubled times for the proud distillery, and many thought that the Spirit suffered. But the good times roll again! <em>The BeRaich Distillery Company </em>bought out the property and has restored this <em>Highland Single Malt </em>to its former glory, and then some. Their entire Whisky line is <em>“Sherried,” </em>meaning matured only in Oloroso Sherry casks. Highland, Single Malt, Sherry casks, proper aging… We’re sold! </p><p>This classy 12-year-old Single Malt was re-launched in 2009. Aged in a mixture of ex-Sherry casks for a minimum of 12 years. Non-chill filtered, and naturally colored… bottled at 43% ABV, this release is a sweet, creamy dream… err, Dram… with warm, rich oak, and classic un-peated, Sherried notes. This Single Malt has GlenDronach written all over it. Not to mention it’s won <em>a fair share of Gold medals </em>at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition, the World Whiskies Awards, and the IWSC.</p>
