Glendronach Peated Single Malt Whiskey

GlenDronach Peated is a Highland single malt that pays homage to the peat historically used to dry the malted barley in the traditional floor maltings during the early days of GlenDronach Distillery — the subtle peated notes in this intriguing expression complementing the classic GlenDronach Highland character and the rich sherry notes drawn from the wood.

GlenDronach Distillery in Forgue, Aberdeenshire has been associated with sherry wood maturation since its founding in 1826. In the distillery’s early decades, floor malting using local peat was the standard method of drying barley. The Peated expression is a historical tribute to this earlier, peatier production period — the subtle peat character adding a dimension that distinguishes it from the standard non-peated GlenDronach range while retaining the characteristic sherry-forward Highland identity.
