Other reviews... From an educated consumer's point of view, there's a lot of averagely good news wrt Scotch. Higher prices, oak-doped bottlings, storytelling gone mad, the ravages of 'me-too!' branding, hot air... But there's also great news, and one of them, in my humble opinion, is named Glendronach... Colour: dark amber. Nose: rich chocolaty sherry. Mars bar? (not deep fried, no worries). Also a lot of coffee and roasted chestnuts, then some honeydew - quite sappy - and raisins, and leather. Only two or three used matches. Mouth: perfect, strong and well balanced between some dry leather and tobacco, an intriguing saltiness, bitter oranges and even more chocolate and coffee. Finish: very long but a little drying (Van Houten's cocoa). Loses one or two points here. Nice touches of maraschino, though. Comments: classic ultra-oloroso-ish Glendronach. Much to my liking. 89 points - whiskyfun.com
