The GlenDronach Forgue 10 Year Old

Product Information

Glendronach 10 yo 2002/2013 (52.8%, OB for The Whisky Fair, Pedro Ximenez Sherry Puncheon, cask #710, 665 bottles) - 151013 Our Service is an online platform which provides Members with information (e.g. bottle facts, market-indices, market values and prices) on (mostly) whisky and allows Members to add information to the platform. We do not sell, nor does the Service provide any option to buy, any alcoholic products. Things were going very well, but two key events over the next few years saw ownership of the distillery change hands and Allardice eventually losing his share in GlenDronach. The first was a fire in February 1837 that practically burned the distillery to the ground. Business suffered after the fire and some of the original partners retired, thereby opening the door for Walter Scott, former clerk and then distillery manager at Teaninich to become a new and equal partner of Allardice. The distillery was repaired, and business continued to flourish until the financial crisis of 1842 left Allardice bankrupt. The remaining partners bought his share and Walter Scott took the reins. The distillery flourished under his stewardship, expanding significantly between 1860 – 1880 and selling more whisky than any other distillery in Scotland during that time.

In terms of taste, I gave Macallan 12 Sherry Oak a higher score of 6/10 because it possesses a more favourable flavour experience. It boasts a complex and well-balanced combination of flavours, with notes of hot pastries, citrus peels, and sherried dried fruits. Compared to the GlenDronach, it offers significantly more depth for the experienced whisky lover to savour and explore. Glendronach 20 yo 1993/2013 (52.3%, OB for The Whisky Agency, Oloroso Sherry Butt, cask #4, 664 bottles) - 151013 If any provision of these Terms is held invalid, the remainder of the Terms shall continue in full force and effect. The mouthfeel is full-bodied, though it may be considered weaker in terms of intensity. It finishes with notes of smoky toffee and nut brittle, along with spices and hints of dark chocolate and dark berries. These unique flavour notes represent the enriching subtleties of its Highland heritage, providing the GlenDronach 12 some individuality against its stronger counterpart, the Macallan 12 Sherry Oak.This review was prompted after a friend recommended the GlenDronach 12 to me. With strong advocacy, they described it as a whisky that ventured beyond the traditional boundaries, a description that resonated with my curiosity. Intrigued, I managed to grab a bottle from my local spirits purveyor, determined to experience this for myself. This seems to be replacing the older GlenDronach “10 year” Port Wood, which had an age statement. (Or, perhaps, the UK version has the age statement? Information on this bottling is sparse.) I think we can all assume that means the NAS bottling is younger than 10. My guess is they needed the freedom to mix in some high-performing 8- and 9-year casks to meet demand. That’s just a guess. The age-stated version’s label also revealed a 3-year extra maturation time in Port (so 7 in sherry, 3 in port). This NAS version doesn’t mention that, so it’s possible the time spent in port has been shortened as well.
