Tasting Notes

This Glenrothes 9 Year Old is a delightful Speyside whisky that showcases the wonders of sherry cask maturation. Distilled in 2011 and bottled by Càrn Mòr in 2021, it spent its final years resting in Oloroso sherry casks, imparting a luscious array of flavors. The nose is a symphony of sherried fruits, raisins, and prunes intertwined with inviting baking spices. On the palate, it's like biting into a decadent fruit cake, brimming with boozy fruits, marzipan, and wafts of clove and cinnamon. The finish lingers with notes of cakey spice, sweet dark fruits, and a touch of orange peel. This bottling encapsulates the essence of Speyside's sherry-aged whiskies, offering a rich and indulgent experience in every sip.
