前文介紹了十九年陳記年 1993 年桶號 537 的多納, 現在介紹同年的 31 桶號, 聽聞亦是供台灣市場的.
Glendronach 19 years, 1993, C# 31, 700 ml, 60.2%
Cask Type: Oloroso Sherry Butt
Distilled: 15/1/1993
Bottled: 7/2012
No. of Bottles: 517/613
氣味: 冬蜜,乾棗,糖薑,朱古力,檀香,蜜炙中藥
口味: 蜜糖,葡萄乾,麥包,黑朱古力,黑茶,肉桂
餘蘊: 中等長度,炭燒咖啡,焦糖,香料
結論: 氣味豐富,甜美的冬蜜和乾果,甘甜的朱古力,點點的糖薑,一縷的檀香,未後一絲帶甜中藥和焦香。酒體力量強橫,豐厚,甘潤,甜美但較氣味為乾,較重甘醇的朱古力和草本。中等長度的餘蘊,偏向焦香,有不辣的丁香味道,有溫暖感。氣味香甜但不算膩,很有趣的有一縷檀木的氣味,融合上可以,不過綜合而言,也正斗之酒。

Glendronach 19 years, 1993, C# 31, 700 ml, 60.2%
Cask Type: Oloroso Sherry Butt
Distilled: 15/1/1993
Bottled: 7/2012
No. of Bottles: 517/613
Nose: Winter honey, dried date, preserved ginger, chocolate, sandalwood, honey baked herb
Palate: Honey, raisin, malt loaf, dark chocolate, black tea, cinnamon
Aftertaste: Medium length, charcoal coffee, caramel, spicy
Overall comment: Rich on nose, sweet honey and dried fruit, bitter yet sweet chocolate, little bit preserved ginger, hint of sandalwood and a breath of Chinese herb. Strong body and round, rich in favors too, still sweet but drier than nose, stressed on bitterness of chocolate and herbal. Medium length aftertaste, trend to roasting, taste of non-spicy clove, warming. A sweet but not greasy dram, interesting note of sandalwood, hamony, good whisky as concluded.
