Palate: Golden syrup, soft, juicy raisins, tangy oak notes, peach, cherry blossom, cocoa and honeydew melon.
Conclusions: Sherry tones lead the finish, with a hint of sulphur, chocolate, luscious fruit and pepper.
Editor Choice: A 21 year old Glendronach released in 2011, and aged in a mix of sherry casks (Oloroso and sweet Pedro Ximenez dessert sherry). The result is really very good indeed. Interestingly enough, this whisky has no political associations. It is, in fact, named "Parliament" after the collective term for a group of rooks - and there is a Parliament of Rooks living in the trees near GlenDronach.
Characterised by notes of noble wood, this venerable version transports us to the Scottish parliament and seats us in an armchair in the adjoining library. And the cherry on the cake... its rebellious style encourages us to play truant.
