Glendronach 8 The Hielan’

Notes from the Distillery:

This single malt has been matured and married in a combination of the finest bourbon and sherry casks for at least 8 years. Bottled at 46% and of natural colour, The Hielan’ encompasses a unique combination of sweet, buttery aromas with spicy, sherry overtones. The Hielan’ is a tribute to the dialect spoken in the distillery’s surrounding area in the Scottish Highlands.

Colour:
Amber with a burnished copper glow.

Nose:
Rounded waves of orange blossom and a citrus twist flow over buttery, golden sultanas, sundried raisins and ripe yellow plums; all dusted with a touch of vanilla.

Palate:
Crisp, vibrant oak spices warm soaked sultanas, apricot jam and gingerbread; all rounded by delicate hints of butterscotch, cocoa and toasted almonds.

Finish:
Classic sherry overtones with a contrasting crisp dimension demonstrate the complexity of the traditional Highland character.
