Have already stocked up on a spare. An absolute favourite and the new 15 is not far behind. Would love to see a comparison of the old and new variants of the 15.
Can't wait to try this and you were right about how this would be hard to find when you mentioned this in 2018 almost 5 years ago.I am glad I ordered 2 bottles last week.I will keep these bottles for a long time.
Lmao, the old red tube....classic. I'm going to sample some of the things Horst says and make a song. This is one of my favorites, got the 18 and 21 for $135ea from whiskey exchange a couple months ago. Time to get another!
Had the pleasure of tasting this at a friends, and it was as close to a perfect dram that I've ever had. Unfortunately its far more than 80 dollars US in Texas.
This one's still missing from collection. I have and enjoy the 12, 15, 21 and no-age Port Cask versions, all of which are distinct with their own unique characters, so I'm very curious to see where the 18 year would compare. I'm still keeping an eye out for it...
I have 3 bottles of the 2017 release(actual age is around 22) and I only have 1oz at a time to make it last lol. Oxidation will make it even better, my open bottle at 4 months is just about perfect so will be gassing soon.
Glendronach apparently released a bottle celebrating their reopening on May 14, 2002. So anything in 2019 should be older than label. Early 2020 is more of a toss-up because it’s unclear whether they age 18 years to the exact date or just the year.
Hi Time Wine Cellar is Newport Beach area has them but in very few amount. I was lucky to get one. Outstanding service from those folks there. Highly recommended for viewers in SoCal area.
$130 REALLY! Some of the best Chaldean stores as well as Total Wine/BevMo have these if you can find it for no less than 170$, if you find it, buy it if your a Bourbon/Rye/Scotch sampler, it's that good.
It really is an amazing dram but definitely not 80 euros, dollars, pounds here in upstate New York more like $180 at the only liquor store that carries it near me

As of late July, 2023, in Virginia, a bottle of the 18 costs $280.
Very impressive Scotch. Huge fan of Glendronach. I give the 18 a 92 and the 21 a 93. I have a 25 and can't wait to find the right moment to open it.
I ordered from The Whisky Barrel UK and it arrived after a week or so - $131 inc shipping, split with one other bottle.
18 years is fantastic!!

Only tried the 12 and it's great..
GlenDronach 18, one of my favourite whiskies. So delicious. Thought me so much about single malt whisky!
instablaster.
Such a great Whisky.

Love your reviews, got a question, when is actually the official reset date for the 18th? Mid 2019 or end 2019?

6:12 Staring into my soul
I was disappointed when I first opened the bottle. Once it got below the neck for a couple weeks, wow!
Which is better 18 Allardice vs Platinum 16?
Just picked one up a month ago. $195 usd
glendronach 18 or tamdhu 18?
The 18 YO is currently £100 all over the UK in late 2019. I'd expect that to rise more in 2020.
After 12 years of being Teetotal I have (Gently.) taken up Whisky drinking.
Over $130 here in Southern California. I'll have to settle for the newly released GlenDronach 15 Revival for $80. No complaints...!!!
Where did you find the 15? I'm also in socal.
