Rosebank (silent) Connoisseurs Choice Single Malt Scotch Whisky 17 Year Old · 1991 Vintage
Out of stock
We really really love Rosebank here at HTFW, and so do Gordon and Macphail because they always seem to pull the best casks out of the woodwork and bottle them at exactly the right time.
An elegant Lowland single malt that as i write this is about to be re-opened after 27 years of closure and seemingly gone forever, happy days indeed! but in the meantime enjoy this Indie release of a classic fresh and grassy Lowland while we wait.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Pale straw gold with a delicate sunlit glow.
Nose
Herb gardens open to a waxy chorus of orchard fruits, with pear frangipane and apricot-glazed tarte tatin. Fresh barley and sugared almonds mingle with mixed peel, crowned by lemon thyme curd.
Palate
Curd-like citrus on the palate, framed by waxy orchard fruits, apricot glaze and lemon thyme. Marzipan sweetness, vanilla sponge cake and apple bonbons give way to a restrained late-spice echo.
Finish
Vermouth-kissed and citrus-bright, the finish lingers with herbal nuance, waxy orchard fruits and vanilla, a delicate dusting of pick-and-mix spice and custard powder.
