Glendronach Single Cask 19, 1994-2014, Oloroso Sherry Puncheon Cask 1100, 324/568, 55.4% abv.

Nose: sherry, sweet dessert wine.
Palate: spicy, that old steamed lotus leaf taste that diminishes with time. A few drops of water doesn't do anything except make the finish slightly more smokey.
Finish: moderate to long, a little spicy, hints of smoke at the end, leaves a sandpapered wood sort of aftertaste.
Dry glass: old steamed lotus leaves.

The quality is there... just Glendronach is not for me I'm thinking. Almost empty bottle though so OBE perhaps? I don't remember sherry tasting anything near this. Had this at Bar Woodside in Seomyeon, Busan.

Grade: C
