GlenDronach 1989 Cask #5476, 28 Years Old, 49.9% – Score: 7/10
GlenDronach 1995 Cask #3311, 22 Years Old, 50.3% – Score: 7/10
GlenDronach 2006 Cask #1979, 11 Years Old, 57.2% – Score: 6/10
Conclusions
These are different whiskies, to my mind. And given I’m a
fan of the distillery, they aren’t massively rocking it for me
personally, which is hard for me to say. I’ve tasted dozens of
GlenDronachs on Malt, and these are probably the poorest value for money
of any of them. Not to say I dislike them – from these alone,
GlenDronach is still better than most Scotch distilleries, and these are
still decent whiskies.
But a distillery changing direction in what it wants to be perceived
as the house style – or the luck of the draw? I’d say the latter, as we
are dealing with single casks rather than single malts. Outliers.
Curiosities.
