Strong oaky aroma and the primary taste note. A touch of sweet and smoke. I don't pick up any sherry notes however. Nice to sip on but a bit disappointing for the price.

About this bottle
The Glendronach — meaning "Valley of the Brambles" in Scotch Gaelic — was founded in 1826 by James Allardice who discovered that sherry casks from Spain paired well with his Highland spirit. This 12 Year expression is one of three core single malt whiskies in the brand's portfolio. The packaging for the whisky has been updated in 2024 to highlight the brand's use of Spanish sherry casks for its maturation. Here, oloroso & Pedro Ximenez casks were used. Bottled at 43% ABV, the new bottles will be available in the US beginning October 2024. (SRP $65.99)
