It has a plain and rugged impression but is straightforwardly delicious. 【Good/Very Good】 From the Scotch Single Malt Circle in Germany, GlenDronach 1977-2001, aged for approximately 24 years. Recently, Dronach is often associated with sherry cask styles, but this one has a light color and plain barrel characteristics. Perhaps due to the plain cask, the barley notes remain strong despite the aging period, and it doesn't feel particularly complex. However, I strongly felt a rugged, clay-like nuance that could be considered the unique character of Dronach, often found deeper within sherry casks in recent releases. This was a Dronach that conveyed the original spirit's character and the straightforward deliciousness of barley.
