Greetings!
We are quite excited to announce GlenDronach will be coming back to the USA, and we have been appointed to handle the line! That is big whisky news for us, and it rounds out our scotch whisky portfolio nicely.
We received some great ratings from Paul Pacult's Spirit Journal. Be sure to check out what he said about the Springbank 18!
Cheers,

GlenDronach: Back in the USA!
We are proud to announce GlenDronach is coming back to the USA! Since 1826 GlenDronach has been creating the finest sherried single malts in Scotland. The GlenDronach Distillery was recently acquired by the independently owned BenRiach Distillery Company Ltd. They will be producing these malts the same way as they started back in 1826. Read more information about this historic distillery on the GlenDronach Website
You can expect to see GlenDronach hitting shelves in early November.
