Description
This single-cask Glenrothes, distilled in June 1990 and matured entirely in Sherry butt #10784, represents the richer, more opulent character of Speyside aged under wine influence. Sherry maturation brings deep dried fruit, dark chocolate, and warming spice to Glenrothes' baseline orchard fruit and toffee notes. The texture is full and luxurious with a long, evolving finish that showcases both spirit and wood integration. A collectors' release for those who prefer their Speyside with Sherry depth.
