Palm Beach Pours a Dram That Splits the Difference Between Sherry and Cabernet

The Glendronach's newest bottling is a 14-year-old single malt matured mostly in sherry casks, with a portion finished in red wine casks — the kind of split-cellar detail that gives a whisky its edge over a bar cart from Worth Avenue to Fifth Avenue South. Fourteen years is a patient wait even by Scotch standards, and the red wine casks are the part worth asking your bartender about, since sherry alone would have been the safe, expected choice.
