Tasting Notes
Colour
Rich amber-gold with coppery undertones and a honeyed, sunlit glow.
Nose
Opulent, sherried perfume with dried fruits—figs, raisins and apricots—woven with orange zest, honeyed vanilla and toasted oak. Spices rise: cinnamon, nutmeg, a touch of clove, followed by almond and dark chocolate hints. A luxurious, warming bouquet.
Palate
Silky, full-bodied on the palate, this Glenrothes delivers opulent sherried fruit—ripe raisin, fig and orange peel—bundled with almond, toffee and dark chocolate. Spices rise softly: cinnamon and nutmeg, with polished oak and a touch of resin. A warm, long finish of fruitcake, orange zest and enduring spice.
Finish
An opulent, long finish that dissolves into rich sherry notes—raisin, fig and orange zest—with toasted oak and vanilla providing a warm backbone. Cinnamon and clove weave through, leaving a cocoa-dark, lingering echo that invites the next sip.
