On the nose, wafts of juicy (and maybe even a little tropical) fruit and vanilla cream mingle with plumes of charred oak. On the palate, cinnamon and more wood-smoke lead to runny honey and dried raisin further on. To finish, golden barley shines through here.

The GlenDronach distillery lies at the Dronach Burn in the Deveron area. The whisky distillery was founded in 1826, by a syndicate headed by James Allardes. Thanks to the fifth Duke of Gordon, distillation throughout the highlands was legalized in the early 19th century. It is said the duke encouraged the group to build GlenDronach. The distillery changed hands in 1852, to Walter Scott of Teaninich. Following his death, a group from Leith acquired the distillery.
