Remarks:
Quite tasty Glendronach, although it doesn’t really stand out compared to Parliament. This is softer in the overall profile

Overall I rate this Whisky 90/100 points

  • Nose: 90/100 points
    nice soft sherry notes, plums, raisins, light spice, a bit sweet, slightly come nuts and vanilla, looks slightly closed, light notes of chocolate, some herbs, the alcohol is very well integrated and not noticeable.

  • Taste: 90/100 points
    fruity soft start, hardly any alcohol to be felt, lots of dried fruits, plums and raisins, oak comes and becomes a bit bitter, spicy, slightly herbs in the background. At the end very fruity but also bitterly dry

  • Finish: 90/100 points
    Nice sherry-heavy finish, a bit sweet with vanilla, then becomes spicy and dry, slightly bitter oak notes, medium-long, some chocolate comes again in the background.
