Glenrothes Ainneamh Single Cask #WG258 Whisky 18 Year Old

Colour

Deep amber-gold with copper-bronze edges and a sunlit, honeyed core.

Nose

Opulent and sherry-kissed, this nose bursts with dried orange peel, fig and raisin, apricot and cocoa. Toffee, vanilla and toasted almond mingle with polished oak, while cinnamon and clove lend warmth. A whisper of leather and cacao husk adds depth to the age-woven aroma.

Palate

Velvety and full-bodied, this 18-year Glenrothes coats the palate in sherried richness. Dark cherry, fig and raisin unfold beside orange zest and cocoa, bridged by toasted almond and vanilla. Spice threads—clove, cinnamon, nutmeg—build with the bold 56.2% ABV, delivering warmth without bitterness. The finish is long, resinous oak and leather lingering, plush yet precise.

Finish

Long, luxurious finish, carried by sherried warmth and dark fruit. Dried plum and fig linger with cocoa, orange zest and spice, while polished oak leaves a silky, nutty echo. A velvety fade that persists with refined sweetness.
