The GlenDronach 1993 Master Vintage 25 Year Old is a remarkable Highland single malt created to celebrate one of the distillery’s most highly regarded vintages. The sherry casks filled in 1993 have long been admired by whisky enthusiasts for their depth, richness, and exceptional character.

For this limited Master Vintage release, Master Blender Dr Rachel Barrie hand-selected Pedro Ximénez and Oloroso sherry casks laid down exclusively in 1993. Bottled in 2018 after 25 years of maturation, this expression showcases the classic GlenDronach style: richly sherried, full-bodied, naturally coloured, and non-chill filtered.

In the glass, it displays a deep mahogany colour with a golden walnut hue. The nose opens with brandy-soaked fruitcake, marzipan, smoked walnut, and toasted sultana bread. The palate is indulgent and layered, offering cocoa-dusted coffee, sultana brioche, baked orange rind, prune, dates, and pecan toffee. The finish is long, velvety, and luxurious, with lingering notes of rich cocoa and dark fruit.

A beautifully composed vintage GlenDronach, this 25 year old release is a superb choice for collectors and lovers of mature sherry cask Highland single malt.
