About the distillery
Glendronach distillery is a Scottish whisky distillery located near Forgue, by Huntly, Aberdeenshire, in the Highland whisky district. In April 2016 Glendronach Distillery was purchased by the Brown-Forman Corporation. The deal included BenRiach and Glenglassaugh distilleries.
The distillery draws its water from the Dronac burn within the distillery grounds. It has its own floor maltings and two wash stills in addition to two spirit stills.
Other Information
Personally selected by master blender, Rachel Barrie, this rare and sought-after release was distilled in 1971 using direct-fired casks, and laid down in two casks; a Pedro Ximinez sherry cask and an Oloroso sherry cask before being aged for over five decades in GlenDronach’s dunnage warehouse. These casks were then married for a final maturation period in a single Pedro Ximenez sherry cask, with an outturn of just 198 bottles.
Each bottle of The GlenDronach 50 Year Old is hand numbered bottle and presented in a genuine leather case, accompanied by an embossed leather booklet detailing the distillery history, tasting notes, and its unique craft.
This is *one of only 198 bottles.
(*Please note that the bottle number has been digitally masked at the seller's request. Bottle number will be revealed to the wining bidder only.)
