Glendronach 21 Years Parliament
The 21-year-old Glendronach is the flagship of the distillery. The strong demand has led to a shortage. The addition of the name Parliament, the single malt carries a collection of crows that have been nesting in the trees of the distillery for 200 years. This intensively aromatic single malt whisky matured in selected Oloroso and Pedro Ximenez sherry casks that give it fruit and sweetness.

Taste:
Finish:
quite long and on the beggining very strong
Comment:
Well balanced, strong in taste, mouthfilling, 48% on tangue is quite delicate but a bit harsh when you swallow, so needs a bit of water, and with water the taste is not so deep.
I definitely prefer 18 YO. I thought 21YO will have more development from PX casks.
Don't get me wrong, it's a good dram of whisky, but for me not wothy actuall price, especially when we have 18 YO so much better and more affordable.

and a hint of 
that I almost missed (detected through a whiff taken somewhat further away from the glass)Taste:
and an ever-so-slight bitterness that is reminiscent of 
, but is clearly a supporting undertone rather than attempting to play full-on harmonyFinish:
and 
at the end of a long finish that is true to this whisky's magnificent coreComment: The nose is the star of this whisky. Taste and finish are direct echoes of the elegant scents presented.
The layers offered by The GlenDronach 21-year old are perfectly complementary at every turn. There is at no point a flavor or scent that departs from this whisky's profile. Every facet builds upon its predecessor.
