Rosebank (silent) Gordon & MacPhail Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch Whisky 16 Year Old · 1991 Vintage

Colour

Bright pale gold with honeyed amber accents.

Nose

Floral-waxy bouquet of rose, honeysuckle and ripe orchard fruit—green apple and pear—with a bright citrus lift. A sherry-kissed core adds dried fruit, cocoa and spice, rounded by the bold, cask-strength warmth.

Palate

Silky and powerful, this Rosebank delivers a lush palate of orchard fruits—green apple, pear, quince—woven with waxy honey and a faint mineral lift. Sherry-cask depth brings dark fig, raisin and cocoa, brightened by citrus zest. A peppery ginger kick fans the palate, and the finish is long, dry, and perfumed with delicate floral notes.

Finish

An elegant, long finish carrying orchard fruit—pear and apple—with vanilla and almond. Sherry cask depth adds dried fig, cocoa and spice, then slowly fades to warm oak and a subtle barley sweetness. A lingering cask-strength warmth coats the palate, leaving a refined, resinous afterglow.
