Glendronach 29 Year Old 1993 UK Exclusive Cask 6737

This 29-year-old GlenDronach single cask was distilled in 1993, when the distillery still used traditional coal-fired stills. GlenDronach was subsequently mothballed in 1996 and did not resume production until 2002, before switching to steam heating in 2005. With almost 30 years of maturation, this cask also represents an era before the distillery changed its still-heating method.

Released for the UK market, Cask #6737 spent its entire 29 years maturing in a Pedro Ximénez Sherry Puncheon, rather than undergoing a late-stage Sherry Finish. GlenDronach has long been renowned for its sherry-cask maturation, and this single cask brings together spirit distilled during the distillery's coal-fired era and prolonged maturation in a PX Sherry Puncheon.
