Smash the anvil and call the courts into session for a trial on whether or not you’ll be hooked on the ‘rook’ of richness that is the GlenDronach Parliament 21 year old single malt scotch. Perfectly aged in a blend of sherry casks soaked with Oloroso and Pedro Ximenez dessert sherry – this whiskey is brimming with decadency fit for any rule maker (or rule breaker!) The nose is a delicate waft of smoke over freshly squeezed lemon juice, cedar wood shavings, and thinly sliced apples baked on hewn oak planks. Hues of dark dates and walnuts baked in earthen clay pots soon follow along with a splash of black brewed espresso. The flavor envelopes the tongue in waves of golden sugar syrup with a cascade of juicy raisins, sweet peach, and spring cherry blossoms over a tendril of cocoa spiced oak and honeydew melons splashed with sherry. The GlenDronach Parliament 21 year old single malt scotch finishes with a long tone of sherry mixed with hits of milk chocolate, black pepper, and warm sulpher hazed fruits.
