В большинстве отзывов Glendronach 15 описывают как насыщенный шерри-виски с нотами шоколада, кофе, сухофруктов, орехов, кожи и табака, длинным пряным финишем и хорошим соотношением цены и качества. Вместе с тем встречаются сдержанные и негативные мнения: дисбаланс аромата и вкуса, избыточная доминанта шери, недостаток глубины, короткий финиш, дубовая горечь, серные и резиновые ноты, а также сомнения в оправданности цены и хайпа.
развернуть подробно
В большинстве отзывов этот виски описывается как классический шерри-виски с богатым, округлым и фруктовым вкусом, нотами шоколада, кофе, сухофруктов, орехов, кожи и табака, а также длинным пряным финишем. Его хвалят как хорошо сбалансированный, насыщенный и сложный хересный солод с интенсивным ароматом (херес, ирис, изюм, сливы, шоколад, кофе, кожа), мягким и полным сладковато-фруктовым вкусом и довольно долгим послевкусием; часто отмечают отличное соотношение цены и качества и называют современной классикой. При этом несколько отзывов указывают на разницу между партиями и сожаление о снятии с производства.
Однако есть и противоречивые, редкие и прямо негативные мнения. Часть дегустаторов отмечает дисбаланс между ароматом и вкусом, излишнюю доминанту шери, лёгкость и недостаток глубины и богатства, короткий финиш, избыточную дубовую горечь или сухость в послевкусии, а также серные и резиновые ноты; в отдельных отзывах аромат сильнее вкуса и финиша, а компоненты вкуса кажутся разрозненными. Звучат сомнения в оправданности хайпа и текущей цены, отмечается рост цены и растущая редкость бутылки, а также предпочтение 18-летнего варианта (Allardice) или 12-летней версии. Есть и сдержанные оценки: «не мой стиль», «не оправдал ожиданий», «финиш разочаровал», хотя другие указывают, что финиш раскрывается со временем в бутылке.

He has been on my list for a long time and now I'm curious what he has to offer. The color is strikingly dark. Is that the Oloroso sherry? He smells sweet, like pomace, apple compote, rotten pears. But a quick sip reveals why he is so popular. Oh, heavy onset, very fragrant, not a bit irritating, all very round, fruity, almost creamy. I take now smell was the carnation, which always bothers me personally something. But really good. My first whisky, which does not smell convincing, but tastes even better!
Great, just great, perfect example of Oloroso bringing a perfect balance between sweet fruity notes and savoury, meaty ones.

Lots of nuts, tobacco, milk chocolate, spices. (I somehow remembered this as a bit thicker..) F: Drying, oaky peppers. Again the Olorosso nuts and spices. Long but friendly.
Elegant 15-years old sherried whisky. 86 / 100

If you are on a malt treasure hunt, watch out for the word 'discontinued'. GlenDronach 15 was easily the best whisky of the distillery's core range. The nose is overwhelmingly complex with balsamic vinegar, overripe berries, raisins, maraschino cherries and a touch of mint. A rich and powerful sherry arrival underscores the caliber of the casks used in maturation. Notes of coffee, dark chocolate, cinnamon and walnuts mingle with dried fruits, herbs and tannins. Substantial, savory and pleasantly spicy in the finish, this bottling is a real beauty of a single malt! RATING: 4.5/5.0 stars ≙ 91 pts → SUPERB

strong Sherry aroms, but without any edges
Color : Amber Nose : First sherry and then aeration come the fruits, the caramel, orange and chocolate notes. Very expressive, there is would stay a long time. Mouth : A little behind the nose, it disappoints me every time that I meet this imbalance. Maybe it's from dilution? First of all, sherry, then toffee, caramel, sulfur notes, spices and sherry rancio in the final. Slight astringency. A drop of water highlights citrus on the palate, especially lemon, confirmed by the dry extracts.
I had this one in a tasting session last night after a fresh vanlilla/anise/oak and peppery Longmorn and maybe it's because of that I didn't like it too much, for me this whisky was too much oily-sherry as in heavy sherry. The second and 3rd sip where remarkably better but still not convincing me as the sherry was too dominant for me. The last 2 whiskies of the tasting where an Arran and a Bunnahabhain respectively peated and heavily peated and when grabbing the Glendronach after these or between these peated ones, the dronach was a perfect whisky to ease the peatmonsters in your mouth. So ... I wouldn't buy it just for the Glendronach but I would grab it definately in a whiskytasting evening with friends to calm your senses in your mouth and then enjoy a sweet oily sherry bomb like this one

A classic old school sherry bomb. In my opinion, the sulphur present complements the spirit in this instance.
The finish disappointed a little, especially because the nose and the taste have fallen so good. As a result, he lacks some depth.

As many of you probably already know, GlenDronach announced the phase out of their 15 Years Old Revival — fans of the distillery were in uproar, prices skyrocket and (virtual) shelves were emptied. But, up until then, this expression was arguably one of the best bargains in the whisky world! http://dramlicious.com/tasty-tastings-episode-84/

N: Such a marked contrast to the modern Macallan 12 [2016] WB. Not only in the arbitrary extra three years+ but mainly in the calibre of the casks that give a far richer depth. Added to that are the hints of mineral peat tones in the mix that indicate this is a winner from the off. T: Rich, fruity oily, salivating mouthfeel and some candle wax. Again, compared to the Mac 12, it's richer, fruitier, deeper and oh so vibrant but without that crazy 'zing' that is akin to the modern styled/engineered, first fill NAS & young whiskies of today. F: I'm digging those moorish sugars coming from the sherry with that mineral peat detected on the nose - oh and those vegetal notes and chocolate getting involved at the death. The wood is more than equal to the spirit and vice versa - or more succinctly, equally matched. The sherry is never obtrusive. C: Dave broom says that the quality of casks at Macallan is reported to be low. It's fair to say that the cask quality at Glendronach have been rather high for some years now. This bottle is a later [2015] version WB bottled just before the Revival was phased out. I think Glendronach gave their followers a good send-out batch. Looking forward to the revival's revival. Looking forward to the revival's revival. Scores an A-
It seemed mostly solid-standard at the time, and now it's a modern legend. The sherry is just so wonderful, not cloying or overdone as in so many other malts. Will it be different when it returns? How much of this was actually older than 15 years old? I'm stocking up now.

I'm a big Glendronach fan, but unfortunately this one didn't quite live up to my expectations, even though it's not bad at all. There are just too many, albeit weak, missing notes that give you the feeling that this whisky isn't 15 years old.

Being a whisky lover with a particular taste for sherry whiskies, this delivered all the way. A lovely sweet sherry whisky, but not overly sweet because of that lightly spiced influence.
Probably one of the best sherried whiskies out there right now. Very affordable too! Sometimes, I hear of sulfur in GlenDronach, but either I’m not sensitive to it, or, from the three different expressions I have tasted so far, I was lucky to have tasted from unsulfured batches. Who knows?

Fantastic stuff. Unlike any other 15yo sherried whisky... but that's partly because this is about 18yo with 15yo label. Also, it was distilled at a time when Glendronach used fire stills instead of current steam stills. Only reason it doesn't score higher is because it lacks a bit of depth and richness on the palette.
Fantastic whisky! Super raisin, velvety, deep! In the blind tasting club, the participants did not rate it blindly. I even felt sorry that I had given my bottle to be torn to pieces. *(
Great whisky, the nose is fantastic, loses a bit in the taste but takes it back in the finish.
I am really impressed. A must have in my cabinet (Rating 88-91)

In principle, like the 12-year-old, but more harmonious, more balanced because not so overloaded with sherry. Find out more and more that the Sherry "overloaded" Glendronachs are not quite my case.
An excellent sherry whisky and an example of the qualities that distinguish GlenDronach: excellent, well-matched barrels and the right balance between barrel and distillery character. In 2015, he is a press release slowly disappear from the market, I will definitely put some bottles in stock. A perfect "Every Day Sherry Dram".
Nose: Dark fruits, blueberries, plums and raisins with a profound spicyness of nutmeg, clear oak wood and some cinnamon. Taste: more of the dark red fruits and clear sherry overtones. Turns bitter in the back of the mouth due to the heavyness of the sherry cask oak wood. Finish: dark chocolate bitterness and lots more wood. Even tends a bit towards what chewing on a log of oak wood would probably taste like. Overall a very good whisky but a little heavy on wood influence in the aftertaste. Apparently very active casks are used for this expression, I probably should try the 12 yo next to it.

On the nose clear Oloroso sherry, toffee, vanilla, espresso and caramel, but also something zilltigs. Pretty fruity in the mouth, slightly dry but perfectly balanced. The aftertaste is slightly tingling in the throat and then red fruit and toffee again. Classic Oloroso sherry whisky, love it or hate it. I love it;).

Unfortunately, GlenDronach, who has become a cult whisky, hardly lives up to his reputation. The nose is great, but the palate disappoints. The extreme dryness I found to be inappropriate and disturbing, lacks the expected sweetness and complexity that the two different sherry barrels promise. The finish is then relatively short, leaving a beautiful spicy sherry note. That GlenDronach takes these 15-year-olds out of the program, I feel against many others as not particularly tragic. Especially since the prices are now rising so much that you get for almost the same money the 18 year old.
Just wonderful whisky, complex and long lasting. Despite that and so much blabla, I enjoy personally darker and older sherry casks. Anyway best value for money ever. Love 21 Parliament more.
a nice whisky; one in which, for once, I liked the exit best. Is that a great malt ?: yes, definitely! Can I understand the hype around the 15er ?: No, somehow not.

My bottle was bought and opened on 9th November 2014 (Jones’). Rich, well aged fruitcake, sherry, walnuts and savoury notes in abundance, Opens beautifully, well defined and articulated structure. Classic dryish/ bitter finish. A 'Sherry Bomber's must try whisky - this one is elegant and engaging. The smell of the bottom of the glass the following day is glorious. Do not wash out your Glen Cairn! - Rinse it with a less convincing whisky!...
Review from my blog: http://thewhiskyagents.com An elegant sherried start on raisins, dried apricots, figs and dates. Also a nice touch of wood spice from a good cask. I find some shortbread and toffee as well, some menthol and a whiff of balsamic vinegar. The taste is sweet and gets drier after a bit, displays a wonderful consistency which is creamy and full. Here too the premium casks show how important they are, well integrated and supporting the distillate with cinnamon, cloves and the whole “Christmas cake” works. Wet leaves in autumn are to be found as well. It feels like a classic Whisky and this gets backed up by the lovely aftertaste of a traditional dunnage warehouse. No need to say this is one of my favourite Whiskies to date. Marvellous. The “Revival” has not been available since 2015 much to the regret of many a Whisky lover. But it was said to return in 2018. We’ll see how Brown-Forman feels about that;)

Superb complex nose, with rich oloroso to the fore. I was struggling to believe that this was a sub £50 malt! The taste and finish can`t quite deliver what the nose promises, but that`s not too surprising (otherwise this would cost several times more I guess). Kudos to the distillers for bottling at 46%. Benefitted from a couple of drops of water, bringing out even more complexity. Great whisky at a fantastic price.

When I first opened this bottle I decanted it right off. Having heard that this takes a while to open up. But I was still disapointed rating it an 86. Now that the bottle is half gone I have changed my vote to a 91 the whisky still feels the same it just seems like the volume has been turned way up. Initially the finish was the most disapointing part being almost non existent. There is this orange menthol feeling that stays u long after your glass is empty. Allot of Other whiskies lose something as they sit In The bottle my last bottle uigeadail has lost almost all sherry influence by the time it was half way gone. Maybe that's the real reason Glendronach decided to name there 15 yr the Revival. As it needs to be revived before its any good.

How many bottles are made? Thank you
The nose is astounding. It's incredibly intense, rich and complex. The palate and finish aren't bad at all, but not as good as the nose either. At the tail-end of the finish I get a yeasty/sulphury note which is not exactly pleasant, but neither off-putting.
Very nice balanced whisky. Clear sherry influences in the color, smell and taste. Smell is already very complex and pleasant, hardly alcohol, certainly not predominant. Taste is nicely full and complex, fruity and sweet, with chocolate influences. These flavors also come back in the fairly long aftertaste. Total not sharp / peppery. A sturdy character full of whisky, too bad that it is harder to get for the time being, but do it economically with the bottle ...

This was a big hit this year at the WhiskyFest San Fransisco in Oct. I found the sherry was well balanced and very palatable. Couldn`t wait to find a bottle and add it. I really like that the whisky makers are stepping up the ABV and making it up to us the consumer to add drops of water to taste. I always have it neat and rarely add drops of water to even cask strength to really enjoy the work that goes into each batch. Look forward to the 21 yr Parliament, its also very good. Check out the shoplink in the states I added, they are one of the best around, ask for Forest.

Excellent matter, a shame that it is not practically at the moment.

| Нос | 89 | Intense, full and rich, with leather, cocoa and coffee. Some honeyed ginger, toffee, and maple syrup. You can feel the cask influence is really strong here, on top of the sherry, there are some very old, damped wooden notes. |
| Вкус | 88 | Fresh and sweet arrival, with figs, ginger, honey, treacle, a little bit of wood smoke, dark chocolate, also rum like palate. |
| Финиш | 88 | Dark chocolate, nutty, with a slight hint of salty tang. A rather long and warm finish. |
