Whisky Review: The GlenDronach Cask Strength Batch 10 at 58.6% ABV (117 Proof) — at $99.99/750 mL, the question is whether it delivers on its promise. I sat down with a pour to find out.
Nose
More powerful on the palate than the nose. The palate begins with the sweetness of a clove that rests on the tongue. Cherries and brown sugar meld with a faint nuttiness, and warming spices offer a smooth finish.
Palate
Much of this tasting was spent thinking about other Scotch whiskies Ive experienced. As stated above, Im certainly not the premiere voice in Scotch, but as an outsider slowly working my way into the folds, I can recommend to other newbies that The GlenDronach is a great place to start.
