Enter the upper echelon of sherried opulence with Glendronach 43 Year Old – 1971 Vintage, Batch 11 (Cask #2920).
Filled on 28 May 1971 into a single Pedro Ximénez sherry puncheon, the whisky slumbered in the distillery’s stone dunnage for over four decades before being bottled—at natural cask strength—in November 2014. Un-chill-filtered and natural in colour, only 523 individually numbered bottles showcase Glendronach’s signature dark-fruit depth transformed into a cathedral of polished mahogany, walnut cake and rancio-tinged spice.

Why We Think You’ll Love It

  • Single-cask pedigree: full-term maturation in a Pedro Ximénez puncheon infuses decadent dried-fruit richness, dark-chocolate depth and exotic spice.

  • 43 years polish Glendronach’s orchard-fruit core into layers of mahogany sweetness, honeyed resin and rancio complexity.

  • Bottled at natural cask strength (non-chill-filtered, natural colour) for undiluted body, aroma and a deep sunset-ruby hue.

  • Part of the coveted Batch 11 single-cask releases—strictly 523 bottles, essential for collectors and sherry-malt connoisseurs.

  • Exemplifies Glendronach’s hallmark balance of dark fruit, polished oak and warming spice at its most luxurious and age-defining.

Pour a measure of this 1971 masterpiece and savour an unforgettable union of honeyed depth, opulent PX richness and time-honed elegance—an extraordinary dram that resonates long after the final sip.

Tasting Notes

Nose: A robust combination of rich prune syrup and blackberry jam with deep dunnage characters, sweetened by hints of mocha and a dusting of cinnamon. Palate: Intense treacle toffee floods over sour plums and roasted coffee. Harmonising waves of leather and tobacco give great depth and are balanced perfectly by a subtle toasted walnut and date back note.
