Distillery Info
The GlenDronach Distillery is nestled in the valley of Forgue, deep in the East Highland hills near Aberdeenshire, is named after the source of it's water - the Dronac burn.
The distillery was founded in 1826, The GlenDronach was one of the very first licensed distilleries and has a history of enterprising owners, from the flamboyant James Allardice to the ambitious Walter Scott. Allardice was a colourful character and stories abound as to how he promoted his whisky with entrepreneurial flair. He was a pioneer of sherry cask maturation and would have celebrated today’s superb The GlenDronach, maturing our whisky in the finest Pedro Ximenez and Oloroso sherry casks.
The GlenDronach 12 Year Old Original Single Malt Whisky is superb, richly sherried single malt and matured for at least 12 years in a combination of the finest Spanish Pedro Ximenez and Oloroso sherry casks. Non-chill filtered, of natural colour and bottled at 43%, the GlenDronach 12 year old Original is a sweet, creamy dram.
