About GlenDronach

In the 'valley of the brambles' near Forgue, in Aberdeenshire, GlenDronach was founded in 1826, one of the first distilleries licensed after the Excise Act of 1823. It draws its water from the Dronac Burn in its own grounds, and its name has long been bound up with sherry: the core range is matured in oloroso and Pedro Ximénez casks. The spirit is rich, dark-fruited and robust. Brown-Forman's.
