Review by The GlenDronach

Colour

Prominent rose-wine hue, built around a light copper orange core.

Nose

Stewed damsons and plum conserve. Raisins, sultanas and fine grand cru chocolate provide lovely depth and structure.

Palate

Fruit shortcake drenched in vanilla custard, with a scattering of dried figs, dates and wild strawberries. Smooth tannins and light acidity highlight a wonderfully long finish.

Note

The GlenDronach Tawny Port Wood Finish expression was initially matured in European oak and thereafter finished its maturation in a very small batch of Tawny Port barrels, which have given the whisky its own unique flavours and aromas. This wood finish has been released in 2011.
