Bottled at 46% the Hielan is composed of a mix of Ex-Bourbon & Ex-Sherry Casks. The name is a "a heartfelt tip of the hat to the extraordinary Forgue distillery, Glendronach’s spiritual home in the Highlands and one of Scotland’s oldest distilleries." We're not entirely sure what that means, but we'll take it as is. Looking forward to sampling it and providing our own tasting note.

Andrew's Tasting Note
Nose: malty, a touch of barnyard and wet hay; raisins and waxy chocolates; Fig Newtons, juicy orange and Bananas Foster.
Palate: big, rich, nutty and fruity; loads of caramel, more malt and wet hay; Sunrype boxed raisins and Glosset Raisins; more Fig Newtons, juicy orange and cooked banana; soft new leather and a touch of spice.
Finish: medium in length and light; leather, dark fruits and spice last the longest.
Comment: surprisingly pleasant and complex for just 8 years... not mind blowing, but very good for 8 years of age!
Distiller's Tasting Note:
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.

The new Glendronach 12 year has been double cask matured in both Bourbon casks and Oloroso Sherry Casks giving it a soft creamy body with some sweet sherry notes. The new owners have done well by this one.

Not so much a classic, as it is an icon. When you're looking for big sherried malts, there's probabaly not many that should come before this one.
...when you can get your hands on it, that is.
Producer Description
"Matured in a combination of the finest Oloroso and Pedro Ximenez sherry casks for a minimum of 21 years and bottled at 48% ABV, the ‘Parliament’ continues the great GlenDronach tradition of offering fruit-laden intensity in its single malts. This rich expression has been named ‘Parliament’ after the colony, or ‘parliament’, of rooks that have been nesting in the trees that overlook the GlenDronach distillery for almost 200 years."

We all know the sad story of GlenDronach 15 Revival disappearing, then reappearing, only to dry up to a near a trickle again (in our market, anyway). We don't see much of it nowadays, so it's always a good idea to nab one when opportunity presents. Modern day classic.
Producer's Description: "In flavour, the expression offers sumptuous notes of dark fruits, rich chocolate and manuka honey with an enveloping, memorable finish worthy of this monumental malt’s history. This luxuriously sherried Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky is bottled at 46% ABV and natural in colour."

This is the second vintage 10-year-old bottled for Canada by GlenDronach, distilled in 2011, it replaces the 2009 vintage. Bottled at 43%, it was "matured in the finest Pedro Ximenez casks from Spain." The 2011 vintage is a darker and more stereotypical GlenDronach than the 2009 vintage bottling.
Producer Description
"For this limited edition vintage, a small number of Pedro Ximénez casks were hand-selected by our Master Blender Rachel Barrie to reflect the richness and complexity which The GlenDronach is renowned."
