Glenrothes 1971 vintage Speyside single malt Scotch whiskey. Matured in 1st fill Sherry butt and refill American casks bottled 2015 by Gordon & MacPhail for the Macphail’s Collection series.

Taste: Underlying sweetness, fresh pear notes and a subtle almond in the background. Glenrothes Distillery was established in the narrow valley of the Rothes Burn on the west side of Rothes in the Speyside whiskey region by James Stuart & Co. in 1878. This is a large malt whiskey distillery owned by Berry Bros & Rudd of London, with eighteen washbacks, ten copper stills singing in their own mighty cathedral and has retained its traditional pagoda roof.
