Glenrothes Sample Room Single Malt Scotch Whisky 11 Year Old · 1994 Vintage

Colour

Burnished amber-gold with coppery glints and a mahogany-tinged rim, a warm, sunlit glow.

Nose

Opulent sherry warmth envelops a polished Speyside nose: raisins and fig paste, orange zest, and honeyed apples layered with almond paste and toffee. Vanilla from mature oak threads through, while a whisper of nutmeg and cinnamon adds subtle spice. Velvety and inviting, with cocoa-dusted fruit and enduring, refined sweetness.

Palate

Silky, mouth-coating entry with polished oak and orchard sweetness. Dried apricot and fig mingle with sherry richness, supported by toasted almond, vanilla and a whisper of cocoa. Gentle spice—cinnamon and clove—lifts the mid-palate as orange zest and honey linger, delivering a long, refined finish with a subtle cocoa-nutty edge.

Finish

Long, refined finish with lingering dried fig and raisin, orange zest and cocoa; sherry sweetness coats the palate as cinnamon and nutmeg spice slowly fade, joined by toasted oak and a hint of almond.
