Our 6th exclusive KWM Cask of Glendronach is a twist on the typical sherry monters we see from the Glendronach Distillery. Glendronach 2003 Cask 1750 has been selected and bottled exclusively for Kensington Wine Market at 54.5% and 12 year of age. It was finished in a Virgin Oak Hogshead after maturing in sherry. Only 228 bottles came from the cask,
Andrew's Tasting Note
Nose: cola cubes and coconut icing start things off, with Dulce de Leche, silky caramel and Demerara sugars; the is orange, melon and chocolate strawberries there too.
Palate: silky and warming with building spices, more Dulce de Leche, Highland Tablet, Demerara sugars and eventually the soft caramel; more cola cubes, chocolate strawberries and orange rind; the melons and more exotic tropical fruits are there but buried by the weight of the sherry and virgin oak notes.
Finish: long, coating, creamy, fruity and decadent with sugars, spice and everything nice.
Comment: this is not your typical Glendronach, while the sherry notes are there the virgin oak has leant a wonderful silkiness to the nose and palate; if you are looking for a sherry monster, keep looking, if you’re looking for a slightly different twist on Glendronach, look no further!

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."
