TASTING NOTES Nose : Rich apricot and orange marmalade extend with Brazil nuts. Then vanilla and lemon meringue appear, with a burst of maltyness and oak providing a spine. Palate : Soft, rich mouthfeel. Concentrated flavours embrace each other, apricots, apricot jam, juicy lemon freshness and indulgent orange marmalade. Gingerbread emerges and maltyness grows backed up by oak and underlying toasted notes, with a luscious finale of fruit compote and nutmeg. Finish : Tangy dryness grows with malty, oak notes, culminating in orange marmalade underlined by dryness. Tasting notes by: Ian Wisniewski; Spirits Writer and Broadcaster, specialising in whisky. ABOUT THIS SINGLE CASK GLENROTHES The third release in Spiritfilleds Mythical Beasts series, is a stunning Glenrothes malt from the heart of Speyside. Much like our second Fettercairn release, this single malt has been maturing in the same cask since its filling. The exciting part is its a first fill sherry butt. The wonderful golden colour thanks to the sherry influence, has also created a very special flavour - enhanced by the traditional Glenrothes profile. With a limited number of 588 bottles from this cask at 55% ABV, its a beautiful addition to our collection.
