Nestled in the valley of Forgue, deep in the East Highland hills, is The GlenDronach, one of the
oldest licensed distilleries in Scotland. The GlenDronach is of true Highland style: a complex and full-bodied spirit, perfect for slow aging in Spanish sherry oak. At The GlenDronach Distillery, they have carried forth the tradition of its founder James Allardice since 1826, aging its Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky in the finest Spanish Pedro Ximénez and Oloroso sherry casks from Andalucía in Spain. They continue to work towards mastering the art of sherry cask aging, and its Highland whiskies are recognized for their deep color and rich flavor profiles, which range from sweet fruity flavors, from the Pedro Ximénez casks selected, to the dry and nutty notes, from superb Oloroso casks. Its well-kept secrets have been guarded for nearly 200 years by a parliament of rooks who love The GlenDronach so much they try to nest in its warehouses. The distillery folk believe as long as the rooks remain at the distillery, it will be good for the whisky.
