The whisky was then finished in Pedro Ximenez sherry casks. The Kingsman Edition 1989 was inspired by a 29 year-old whisky that was bottled in 1913, the oldest bottle housed at GlenDronach. Only 3052 bottles were produced.

Tasting Notes

"The PX influence comes through, particularly with its dark amber color. The usual suspects show up on the nose with orange peel, figs, dried fruits, and nuts along with some dark chocolate. As you taste, the extra aged single malt is slightly oily and has a bittersweet profile (more bitter than sweet), although it's not unpleasant. But the lively fruit found on the nose is gone. It's fairly spicy and somewhat chewy. This dram would benefit from a splash of water, otherwise it feels a touch hot. "
