Glendronach 2007 Cask 6769 12 Year Old 60.9% (2019)
Glendronach 2007 – Cask Bottling Batch 17 (12 Years | Pedro Ximénez Puncheon | 60.9%)
This Glendronach 2007 is a powerful, clean single cask release, matured entirely in a Pedro Ximénez puncheon . That means deep sweetness, raisins, chocolate, and a fatty texture — exactly what Glendronach lovers are looking for.
At 60.9% this is a real sherry bomb with a distinct, rich style.
