GlenDronach Port Wood
The Glendronach Port Wood has an intense rich cherry wood appearance. On the nose it is bramble and strawberry am with top nuances of cherry blossom and honeysuckle on a base of sandalwood and ginger. The palate is filled with blackberry and roasted apple crumble with freshly baked gingerbread, developing into a baked orange and black cherry back note. The finish is sultana and cherry cake lingering into a rich dark fruity finish. The GlenDronach Port Wood is inspired by the historical import of casked port into Scotland during the 19th century. The GlenDronach distillery was established in 1826 by founder James Allardice, at a time when both sherry and port were ‘de rigueur’, with the finest port pipes travelling along Portugal’s Douro River, destined for the wine cellars of Scotland’s gentry.
Kilkerran 8 Year Old Bourbon Cask 57.7% 2026 Release
The Kilkerran 8 Year Old Cask Strength Bourbon 2026 Release showcases the character of Campbeltown whisky. Matured exclusively in bourbon casks and bottled at cask strength, this limited annual release continues the distillery’s reputation for producing whisky with depth, texture and a distinctive coastal influence. It offers a balance of sweetness, gentle smoke and refined complexity, making it a sought‑after expression for collectors and enthusiasts alike. The nose opens with soft butterscotch and custard creams, followed by apple butter and a subtle savoury note of white miso. Layers of cream sponge and poached pear add a delicate sweetness. The palate carries a creamy texture with flavours of shortbread crust and smooth caramel chocolate, developing into brighter notes of gooseberries and white grapes alongside hints of cigar box smoke and sandalwood. The finish reveals green peppercorn and honeydew melon, joined by a gentle ashy character that lingers with satisfying warmth.
