Discover the GlenDronach Ode To The Embers Scotch Whisky

Introducing the GlenDronach Ode To The Embers, a remarkable single malt Scotch whisky that marks a new chapter in GlenDronach's storied history. This exquisite spirit is part of the Master’s Anthology series and is the distillery’s first peated release, offering a unique blend of rich sherry barrel maturation and gentle peat smoke.

Tasting Notes

• Nose: Experience a smoky warmth with hints of heather, cinnamon-spiced toffee, flamed orange, caramelised walnut, star anise, and stewed fruit.
• Palate: Delight in sweet raisin and honeyed walnut layered with bramble ganache, smoked chocolate fudge, and earthy oak spice.
• Finish: Enjoy a long finish with dark berries, smoked liquorice, cocoa, ginger spice, and lingering sherried fruit with smoke.

What Makes It Special

This is GlenDronach’s first-ever peated expression, adding smoky complexity to its signature sherry style. Matured in Oloroso and Pedro Ximénez sherry casks, it offers a rich depth and is bottled at a robust 48.4% ABV for concentrated flavor. Presented non-chill filtered and naturally colored, it retains its full character and authenticity.

How to Enjoy

Best savored neat in a Glencairn glass to explore the balance of sherry and smoke. A few drops of water can open the layers of fruit and spice. Pair with dark chocolate, roasted nuts, or charcuterie to complement its depth.
