Glendronach Single Malt Whisky 12 years 0.7L 43% The history of the Glendronach distillery The name of the Scottish malt distillery Glendronach means "valley of the blackberry bushes". Glendronach is located near Banff and Huntley and is therefore part of the eastern Highlands.

The production of Glendronach Single Malt Whisky 12 years Glendronach is a special case in the world of malt whisky distilleries because the work here is still very traditional. The barley required comes from the surrounding farms in the fertile Forgue Valley. The barley is then processed in our own floor maltings and mixed with water from the nearby Dronac Burn. Fermentation takes place in wash backs made in the traditional way from Oregon pine. The fermented mash is finally distilled in one of four copper pot stills.
