Tasting Notes
This 12-year-old Glenrothes single malt whisky is a true delight for the senses. Upon nosing, it unveils a delightful aroma of stewed apples and pears, complemented by a drizzle of caramel and a subtle hint of pepper spice. The palate is greeted with the warmth of freshly baked gingerbread, accompanied by an array of baking spices, including cinnamon and nutmeg, intertwined with buttery shortbread and juicy sultanas. The finish is long and dry, allowing the spices to linger pleasantly on the palate. Distilled in May 2006 and matured for 12 years in a single first-fill sherry butt, this expression from The Whisky Baron's Founder's Collection is a testament to the art of sherry cask maturation, resulting in a rich and complex whisky that will undoubtedly captivate the hearts of connoisseurs.
