The Distillery: Glenrothes

The Glenrothes Distillery is located in Rothes in the heart of the Speyside. It looks back on a very turbulent history. The day the first spirit was distilled at Glenrothes was 28 December 1879 and this might have been seen a bit as a bad omen: It was the day the Tay Bridge at Dundee collapsed. Several times The Glenrothes was hit by fire and it burnt down at last, but as a phoenix it rose again and today it’s back on the stage and playing a big role in the Whisky game. read more

Herstellerbeschreibung
on 21.06.2019

Geschmack: Cremig und voll mit Vanille.
Abgang: Lang und würzig mit Trockenfrüchten.
Fasstyp: First Fill American Sherry Hogshead und Refill Sherry Butts

Aroma: im ersten Anlauf fruchtig-süß, marmeladig, Kirsche, leichter Anklang von Pflaumenmus... dann ein paar Nasenzüge lang muffig-modrig-alt... jetzt Marzipan, Bohnerwachs, ein Hauch Minze,.. wieder ein Löffel Marmelade, Früchtebrot, Waldhonig, ein Hauch Möbelpolitur... toll

Geschmack: kräftig, vollmundig, Schokolade, Kakao, Nougat... Dominosteine (Lebkuchen, Marillenmarmelade)... länger im Mund: alte Treppe mit Bohnerwachs, altes Leder, nochmal was richtig dunkel-kirschiges

Abgang: lang, Kakao, Schwarzkirsche, etwas harzig... dann warm und trocken

Kommentar: Sauleckeres Teil, vor allem wunderbare Nase, da hätte ich noch weiterfabulieren können, ziemlich abwechslungreich, da kommt sehr viel rum. Insofern ist es fast schwierig, dann beim Trinken nicht enttäuscht zu sein - der Geschmack ist natürlich auch toll, aber der komplette Nasenfasching wird da nicht abgebildet, geht auch gar nicht. Preislich außerhalb meines Normalbudgets, 270 dürfte aber für 'ne so'ne leckere OA dieses Alters angemessen sein.
