Glendronach 2002 Cask 1988 Batch 8 is a 10-year-old single malt Scotch whisky from the Highland region, matured in a Pedro Ximénez Sherry puncheon. Despite its younger age, it offers a profile of remarkable concentration. The nose features notes of chocolate orange and plums, leading to a palate of sweet raisins and vanilla. This bottling demonstrates the rapid and effective influence of PX Sherry casks on the Glendronach spirit, resulting in a rich and satisfying malt that remains vibrant while showing significant Sherry depth.

Glendronach is one of the oldest licensed distilleries in Scotland, its history in the Valley of Forgue stretching back almost 200 years. The distillery has come under the stewardship of numerous owners over the years: founded by a consortium headed by local laird James Allardice in 1826, it was purchased by Walter Scott of Teaninich in 1847, Charles Grant in 1920 and William Teacher & Sons in 1960 (Glendromach was a component of Teacher’s blended whisky throughout the latter’s ownership). Next came Allied brewers, in 1976. Then, via various consolidations and acquisitions, in 2005 Glendromach became part of the Pernod Ricard whisky portfolio.

In 2008, Pernod sold Glendronach to a consortium led by Master Distiller Billy Walker (of BenRiach fame). As part of a £7 million investment, they spearheaded the relaunch of the entire Gledronach core single malt range – that is, 12- 15- and 18-year-old expressions. Each whisky of the core range is matured in ex-Sherry casks, in particular oloroso and PX, and showcases Glendromach signature rich, fruity style. However, in 2015, Glendromach did also introduce a peated expression.

Bringing us up to date, in 2016 the distillery was purchased as part of a wider acquisition of the BenRiach Distillery Company by the Brown-Forman Corporation.
