Notizen: 
Glenrothes 26 Year Old Bottling Note
The Glenrothes distillery is a Speyside favourite, dating back to 1878! That's a lot of history, not to mention a lot of great whisky. Speaking of which - let us introduce you to our bottling of 26 year old Glenrothes single malt Scotch whisky, presented as part of our Single Cask Series! It was distilled in June 1988 and matured in a single refill bourbon hogshead cask until it was bottled in September 2014.

Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt

Nose: Soft orchard fruits and ripe tangerines (with a little touch of orange peel too). Sugared shortbread and warm pretzels dipped in butter. Hints of aromatic tree resin and maybe even some sticking plaster notes.

Palate: Opens with clove, cinnamon and woodsmoke - intensely earthy and warming. It turns juicy on the mid-palate, packed full of mango, pineapple and orange, with a suggestion of buttered sourdough bread.

Finish: Vanilla, cluster hops and green apple notes last.

Overall: A Glenrothes single malt on top form right here.
