- Description
- Rosebank's 30-year-old 1990 vintage captures a piece of Lowland whisky history, distilled three years before the distillery's closure and reclaimed from decades of maturation in refill sherry butts and bourbon hogsheads. The extended aging has woven together honeyed sweetness, dried fruit complexity, and soft oak influence into a silky, dignified spirit. The finish is long and elegant, with lingering sherry warmth and subtle citrus notes. An exceptional bottling for collectors and those wanting to taste a significant chapter of Scottish distilling before its recent revival.
