Description

I n 1826 the exuberant and extroverted James Allardice, along with a consortium of local farmers, founded the distillery and began producing his "Guid GlenDronach" single malt. Unfortunately Allardice's marketing strategy of offering free drams to Edinburgh's "ladies of the night", coupled with a fire at the distillery in 1837, led to him declaring bankruptcy.

Nose
browned and bruised fruit, melons: cantaloupe and honey dew; brown sugar, Highland toffee, cinnamon butter and tropical fruits; the deepness of the sherry notes and the magnitude and complexity of its fruits is approaching that of the Black Bowmore 1964 42 Year (one of, if not my favourite whisky of all time!); it's as though a box of Christmas spices and another of cocoa powder have been spilled into a bowl of mixed fruits.
Palate
brandy soaked cherries, sticky toffee pudding with treacle sauce; maple syrup, Pedro Ximenez Sherry notes and round Christmas cake notes with marzipan, molasses, and more festive winter spices; layers of nuts: candied almonds and beer nuts with tropical fruits: mango, papaya, melons and figs; rich chocolate notes too including dark goat milk and unsweetened baker's chocolates.
Finish
drying and long with more notes of dark chocolate, melons, sweet spices and liquorice; the drying oak starts to make the whisky's age felt here but it is restrained by dark fruits and tobacco.
