Product Highlights
This is the third and final release in the Glenrothes trilogy of single cask bottlings. December 6, 1970, three single casks were filled with Glenrothes Single Malt Scotch. Over the following half-century, that single malt scotch matured undisturbed in those self-same barrels.
Cask No. 10589: If you’ve ever had a campfire interrupted by rain, you’re familiar with the smell of smoky, wet wood. That’s the first note you get on the nose, along with vanilla, cooked bananas, a hint of sandalwood and touches of dried fruits. The taste is fruity and vibrant on top with fresh berries and tropical fruits. A dark undertone of oak tannins and smoke balanced by gentle spices underneath makes this single malt delightfully complex. The finish is very long with gentle spices and touches of fruit and smoke. Outstanding!

Truly classic exotic fruit, top quality ye olde Speyside .... So silky and salivating, and the good news is that despite the oaky intervention the malt can still be enjoyed to the full .... Talk about a whisky to bring back the memories So beautiful
