Glendronach 28 Year Old 1993 Cask #4195 Single Malt Scotch Whisky 700ml

GlenDronach 28 Year Old 1993 Cask #4195 is a single cask Highland single malt from GlenDronach Distillery — hand-selected by the Master Blender from the distillery’s historic Forgue warehouses, drawn from a single Oloroso sherry puncheon, bottled at natural cask strength of 52.5% ABV without chill filtration, and presenting the extraordinary depth of character that 28 years in a single Oloroso puncheon produces.

Each year, GlenDronach’s master blender meticulously assesses ageing casks to identify individual barrels of distinguishing character for the Single Cask programme. Cask #4195 is a single Oloroso puncheon (a large-format sherry cask of approximately 480 litres) from the 1993 vintage — 28 years in this single Oloroso puncheon producing the concentrated dark chocolate, dried fruit, sweet sherry, oak, and warm spice character from the distillery’s most intensive sherry cask format. Bottled at natural 52.5% ABV without chill filtration and in natural colour. Browse the GlenDronach collection at Wooden Cork.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an Oloroso puncheon?

A puncheon is a large-format sherry cask of approximately 480 litres — significantly larger than a standard hogshead (250 litres) but smaller than a butt (500 litres). Oloroso puncheons carry the warm, nutty, and dried fruit character of Oloroso sherry from Jerez. The large format means slower oak extraction and a different integration of sherry character than smaller cask formats. Limited allocation. Order online.
