This is the third Glendronach bottle in the unofficial Star Wars trilogy: Luke Skywalker. The Professional Danish Whisky Retailers ordered 3, 000 bottles of this 10 years old exclusively for the Danish market. In 1826 the exuberant & extroverted James Allardice founded the distillery & produced his ' Guid Glen Dronach' single malt. There was a period where the distillery was mothballed between 1996 & 2002. However in 2008, nothing less than a complete renaissance began. The Ben Riach Distillery Company became Glen Dronach's proud new owner. Nose: caramel, roasted coffee beans (a little bitter!), freshly sawed plands & dark fruit. Hazelnuts & roasted almonds. Palate: very sweet & soft on the spices. A little bit of pepper & a pinch of nutmeg, but far from piquant. The fruit shines through but mid-palate it gets a bitter note from the wood. Finish: wonderfully long & spicy & dry.
