Review #174: Glendronach Cask Strength #2

Highland - NAS - NCF- NCA - $90 - 55.2%

Color - Auburn

Nose - Tons of spice, figs, white fruit - apples, cola, molasses 

Palate - Tea, spice, orange, cocoa  

Finish - Medium -  Nuts, backing spice, golden raisins 

Overall -  6 - . This was somehow less fruity than I anticipated but still had fruit present throughout.  It is nice balanced and everything you could ask for from a NAS sherrybomb.  It is a very enjoyable sherry bomb, top tier but I still probably take Tamhdu batch 1 or 2 over this.
