RNDC (Young’s Market)® The Glenrothes 10 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky 750ml (Speyside, Scotland) – 6043391000735

About the Distillery:

We make rare malt whiskies of exception. Soft and pure spring water exclusive to our distillery, is very slowly distilled, and then aged in custom made, sherry seasoned oak casks from our bodegas in Spain.  This creates complex yet refined, naturally coloured whisky with delicate sherry notes, underpinned by layers of fruity depth. Crafted by a small team of lifelong whisky makers, only a limited volume is available for release each year.

Awards/Reviews:

“Quite youthful on the nose, with barley, vanilla, and finally nectarines. Smooth and medium-bodied, with floral notes, custard, and milk chocolate. A relatively short finish, with sappy oak.” – Whisky Advocate

“The bouquet benefits significantly from aeration as it offers highly pleasant fragrances of flowers, light honey and sweet grain. The palate entry is elegant, vigorous, grainy and moderately sweet; at midpalate the taste becomes more spirity and aggressive but vivacious and grainy sweet. Ends up intensely grainy and fruity.” – Wine Enthuisast
