Tucked within the dramatic landscapes of New Zealand’s South Island lies Central Otago, the world’s southernmost commercial wine-producing region. Renowned for its spectacular scenery—rugged mountains, vast open plains, pristine rivers, and glacial lakes—Central Otago offers a remarkable combination of terroir, culture, and winemaking innovation. Despite its relative youth in commercial wine production, the region has quickly earned international acclaim, particularly for producing some of the world's finest Pinot Noir.

The Glendronach Single Cask Series Batch 10, released in 2014, featured a selection of single malt Scotch whiskies drawn from individual casks. The whiskies in this batch were distilled in the early to mid 1990s and matured in a mix of Oloroso and Pedro Ximénez sherry casks. Each bottling was chosen to showcase the influence of long-term sherry cask maturation, a hallmark of the Glendronach distillery.
