The story behind it

The maker

Founded in 1826 by James Allardice, GlenDronach is one of Scotland's oldest licensed distilleries, located in the historic Highland whisky-producing region. For nearly two centuries, the distillery has stayed committed to traditional hand-crafted methods, utilizing iron mash tuns and wooden washbacks to preserve its robust character.

How it is made

The GlenDronach distillery & rickhouse nestled in the Valley of Forgue is renowned for its mastery of sherry wood maturation since its inception. This particular expression builds on that legacy by selecting premium Port pipes from the Douro Valley to add layers of ripe summer berry complexity.
