Description
The Glenrothes 18 Years Old Speyside Single Malt 43% Vol. 0.7 l + GB is a masterfully matured single malt whisky from the renowned Glenrothes Distillery, located in the famous Speyside region of Scotland. Matured for 18 years in ex-bourbon and sherry casks, this whisky is the perfect example of the exceptional craftsmanship and traditional heritage of Glenrothes Distillery.
The Glenrothes 18 Years Old is an outstanding member of the Soleo Collection, which is characterized by its natural colouring and maturation in ex-sherry casks. The term "Soleo" refers to a traditional wine-making process in which the grapes are dried in the sun on mats until they turn into raisins.
With an alcohol content of 43% vol., the Glenrothes 18 Years Old presents itself with a balanced intensity that brings out the complex aromas from the long barrel maturation. The combination of sherry and bourbon casks gives the whisky a harmonious balance of fruity, spicy and sweet notes, which have been given remarkable depth and elegance by the long maturation.
