Glendronach 40 Year Old 1972 Batch 7 (2012)
Bottle Information
Filled on 15 May 1972 into a lone Oloroso sherry butt and nurtured in the distillery’s cool dunnage warehouses for four decades, this Highland masterpiece was drawn at natural cask strength in October 2012. Bottled non-chill-filtered and natural in colour, only 356 individually numbered bottles reveal an opulent tapestry of dark fruits, polished mahogany and rancio-tinged spice—Glendronach’s storied sherry style at its most regal.
