Glenrothes, 30-Year-Old (Scotland)
A unique concept for The Glenrothes, this is a vatting of casks
from the early 1970s bottled as a 30-year-old Glenrothes. Just
1134 bottles were produced. Sandalwood, nutmeg and fresh fruits
on the nose. Predominantly Seville oranges, with notes of malt.
Big and malty on the palate, with thick cut orange marmalade and
mixed spices. Long and fudgy in the finish, with a citric hint
at the very end. 50.2% ABV, 70, £245, Duty Free & Travel Retail. |

Glenrothes 30 yo (50.2%, OB,
1134 bottles, 2004) Colour: straw. Nose: starts very flowery
and fragrant with hints of lavender and orange flower water.
Goes on with herbal teas (thyme, mint flavoured tea) and quite
some liquorice. Spearmint. Really fragrant and enjoyable. Mouth:
powerful and fruity but also rather tannic, oaky. Lots of
pineapple, dried oranges, liquorice, lactones… The finish is
long and oaky. An interesting contrast between a very perfumy
nose (nothing offending here) and a nicely tannic palate.
