the glendronach single cask #4195 1993 28yr single malt 105pf

The hallmark of our craft at GlenDronach is the marriage of robust Highland spirit with the finest Pedro Ximénez and Oloroso sherry casks from Andalucia in Spain. This exquisite duality brings exceptional depth, complexity, and character to our whiskies. Our traditional Porteus malt mill, glistening copper mash tun, and traditional wooden washbacks made from Scottish Larchwood form a slow and carefully attended process. Our elegant saxophone-shaped stills distill a rich, complex, and full-bodied spirit, which is filled into Spanish oak casks and left to patiently mature in our dunnage warehouses. Nearly 70% of the flavour in whisky is derived from the cask it has been matured in, so we are meticulous in the selection and nurture of our Spanish oak sherry casks.

Each year our Master Distiller specially selects a handful of individual casks from the warehouses at the GlenDronach Distillery, to be bottled as the GlenDronach ‘Limited Release’. With maturing whiskies dating back as far as 1968, there is a vast selection of barrels, hogsheads, puncheons, and butts to choose from.

This specialty bottling was distilled on November 26th, 1993, and aged in Oloroso sherry cask puncheons for 28 years until bottling in 2022.  Only 664 bottles were produced from this cask - #4195. Bottled at 52.5% ABV/105PF.
