Dark” is the most opulent of the trio—an uncompromising single malt matured exclusively in Pedro Ximénez sherry casks. Bottled at a robust 50.8% ABV and non-chill-filtered, it presents a pure expression of the distillery’s signature style: rich, unctuous, and sherry-soaked.

Hand-selected by Master Blender Rachel Barrie, this limited edition whisky pays homage to darkness, depth, and Highland tradition.

Founded in 1826, Glendronach has a legacy shaped by figures such as the Grants of Glenfiddich and Wm. Teacher, with a history steeped in resilience and reinvention. After being mothballed in the 1990s, it now stands among the most respected names in single malt whisky—particularly for those who appreciate the art of sherry cask maturation. Expect an intense dram layered with mocha, espresso, dark fruits, and spice.

It is best enjoyed in contemplative company or paired with a square of quality dark chocolate. This is Glendronach at its most brooding and indulgent.

Nose: Mocha, black cherry and dark chocolate give way to créme brûlée, raisin, and warm ginger.

Palate: Espresso and crème caramel fold into notes of black grape and mint chocolate ganache.

Finish: Lingering sweetness meets raisined oak and a touch of bitter cocoa.
