Aroma: Sherry notes so thick you need a knife to cut them! There's a hint of old rum in there too, with pineapple and brown sugar in tow.
Palate: Christmas cake, rum again, chocolate-coated hazelnut, runny honey and a hint of Sauternes.
Conclusions: Fresh blackcurrant, blueberry pancakes with a generous helping of maple syrup.
Editor Choice: The GlenDronach 18 year old Allardice is named after the distillery’s founder, James Allardice. The Highlander was matured completely in Oloroso sherry casks, and was originally released in 2009 following the distillery changing hands back in 2008. An exceptional fruity sherried single malt.
Now accompanied by two other versions of the 15 and 21 year old, and numerous single casks, the 18 year old nonetheless remains the best example of the quality of the work at this highly regarded distillery.
