Distiller Notes
The Glenrothes Bourbon Cask Reserve pairs the distillery's elegant and fruity spirit with maturation in entirely American oak refill bourbon casks. The result is an exceptionally smooth single malt with aromas of toasted coconut, sweet vanilla, and white peach. On the palate, flavors of baked custard, berry fruit and delicate chamomile lead to a medium finish with a pleasant sweetness.
“A good gulp of hot Scotch Whisky at bedtime–it’s not very scientific, but it helps!”
Alexander Fleming, Scottish inventor of penicillin, prescribed it as a cure for the common cold. Today Single Malt Scotch Whiskies are prized by enthusiasts and aficionados the world over for their rarity, age and complexity. By definition these must be produced in Scotland from a single distillery and made entirely from malted barley, using a pot still. The appearance, aroma and flavor of a Single Malt Scotch Whisky can vary widely depending on whether it was produced in the Highlands, Lowlands Islands, Speyside, Islay or Campbelltown regions.
