    Dramfest '18. Ah the days of VFM Japanese drams is long gone. Mild and offensive. 2.75 at best.

    The sherry cask version was an average dram. This which we tried at Dramfest '18 was good. 3.75... I'm a sucker for first fill whiskeys :-)

    Ah man LeeE and PB Mich called it so I was prepared but yeah flat and uninspiring. Dramfest '18 the distillers saved some for me but they shouldn't have have bothered. Very little port influence. Glendronach is going down hill unfortunately.....

    Great dram but amongst 300 others here at dramfest not a standout. Tastes like a younger spirit. Solid 4. Flavor comes through on tip of tongue.
