The GlenDronach ODE TO THE EMBERS Highland Single Malt 48,4% Vol. 0,7l in Giftbox

The GlenDronach Ode to the Embers is a special bottling from the Scottish Highlands that showcases a rather rare side of the storied GlenDronach Distillery: its subtly smoky profile, reminiscent of the earlier practice of firing with peat. With a robust 48.4% ABV and maturation in Pedro Ximénez and Oloroso sherry casks, this edition demonstrates how elegantly peat smoke can be combined with sweet and spicy sherry cask maturation.

The GlenDronach distillery, founded in 1826 and located in the eastern part of the Scottish Highlands, is internationally renowned for its deep, full-bodied whiskies from sherry casks. The "Ode to the Embers" bottling stands out for its subtle smoky note, which lends the whisky an earthy, almost nostalgic depth—a homage to the smoldering coals (embers) of the past. Uncolored and non-chill-filtered, this limited edition offers an intense, authentic taste experience with character and expression.

The high-quality gift box (UK) underscores the premium quality of this bottling and makes it an ideal whisky for discerning connoisseurs who appreciate complexity and a hint of smoke in the glass.

Tasting notes:

Color: Dark copper with a red-gold shimmer.
Nose: Dried fruits, leather, cloves, raisins, and a subtle hint of smoke.
Palate: Full-bodied and powerful with notes of peat smoke, dark chocolate, caramel, roasted nuts, and dried figs.
Finish: Long and warming with lingering sherry sweetness, smoky oak, and spice notes.

Ideal neat or with a few drops of water in a nosing glass. Perfect with grilled meat, smoked cheese, or dark chocolate with chili. Also excellent as an accompaniment to a cigar with earthy spice. A complex Highland malt for lovers of elegant smokiness and full-bodied sherry depth.
