Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber-gold with coppery sheen and mahogany edges, a warm, glowing bronze in the glass.
Nose
Elegant aromas of ripe pear and lemon zest mingle with creamy vanilla and polished oak. A thread of dried fruit—raisin and fig—adds depth, carried by a subtle sherry sweetness with hints of cocoa and toffee. Gentle spice—cinnamon and nutmeg—lends warmth, while delicate almond and honey lift the perfume to a refined, lingering finish.
Palate
Silky and opulent, this Glenrothes coats the palate with toffee, honey, and dried apricot, unfolding sherry-influenced depth of raisin and fig. A bright orange zest lift accents the creamy vanilla and polished oak, while hints of cinnamon and clove weave through. Rich yet balanced, the finish returns roasted nuts and cocoa, echoing a refined, long-spun warmth.
Finish
Silky, long finish with dark fruit, fig and date undertones, melting into chocolatey notes and toasted oak. A sherry-laden sweep folds in cocoa, dried plum, and spice—cinnamon and nutmeg—persisting with warming, elegant length.
