Remarks:
very tasty Glenrothes. Really complex nose and the slightly bitter on the palate suits it well.
I like this bourbon cask maturation very much.
Overall I rate this Whisky 90/100 points
- Nose: 92/100 points
Lots of light fruits, apples, apricots, some mango, orange, grass, hay, notes of old oak, vanilla, white chocolate, sweet but also a bit musty. - Taste: 90/100 points
sweet and oily, creamy, some white chocolate, vanilla, lots of oak, orange, some peach, light pepper, becoming slightly tart, which suits this malt well, spicy. - Finish: 88/100 points
sweet and a bit creamy, but quickly turning bitter with lots of oak and pepper. At the end the oranges show up again briefly
