Whisky Whiskey 117: GlenDronach Ode To The Embers Single Malt Scotch Whisky

7 September, 2025

CURRENT

With the Odes to the Valley and the Dark now reviewed, the final release in the series, the Ode to the Embers, harkens back to the days when GlenDronach peated their malts. For me, it’s the first modern Peated GlenDronach I’ve ever tried. It’s also the most expensive, but is it actually the best one of the series? Or did we peak with the Dark?
Duration 9 minutes and 37 seconds
