Introducing The Glenrothes 51 – Scotch Whisky News


We are delighted to announce the release of The 51, our oldest and most daring whisky to date. The purity of The Glenrothes’ Estate water helps to create a uniquely delicate spirit character, which intensifies over time. The 51 is a celebration of this phenomenon. This “strength in fragility” is shared by the wild orchids that grow hidden on our Highland Estate; the inspiration behind this exceptional single malt.
This whisky defies expectations – elegant yet powerful, it offers a singular experience for those who truly understand and appreciate rarity.

Crafted from just two casks, The 51 presents a complexity and vibrancy rarely found in whiskies of this age. One cask delivers deeply perfumed notes that evoke the fragility of an orchid’s scent, while the other offers luxurious richness and depth.
The resulting whisky, limited to only 100 bottles, is a rare and fragrant wonder: the orchid of The Glenrothes collection.
