Glendronach 18 Year Old Allardice

Features

Description

The GlenDronach 18 Year Old Allardice is named in honour of the distillery's founder, James Allardice, whose vision helped establish one of Scotland's most celebrated sherried single malt producers. Originally released in 2009 following the distillery's change of ownership in 2008, this exceptional Highland single malt is matured exclusively in the finest Oloroso sherry casks from Spain.

The result is a whisky of remarkable depth and elegance, renowned for its luxurious layers of rich fruit, warming spice, and decadent sweetness. Bottled at 46% ABV, non-chill filtered and natural in colour, the Allardice is a benchmark for sherry-matured Scotch whisky, offering a beautifully balanced combination of richness, complexity, and refinement.

Tasting Notes: Nose: Rich Oloroso sherry, hints of aged rum, ripe pineapple, brown sugar, and warming oak spice. Palate: Luxurious flavours of Christmas cake, rum-soaked fruit, chocolate-coated hazelnuts, runny honey, and a delicate touch of Sauternes sweetness. Finish: Long and elegant with lingering blackcurrant, blueberry pancakes, maple syrup, and gentle warming spice.
