Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

no, I mean yes, it’s one of these very fruity, almost ‘orchardy’ and pretty ‘beehivy’ old Glenrothes. A wee yeastiness at very first nosing, then ripe apples and pears, big juicy peaches, cherries, pollen, nectar, a little grass, quite some mead and just a little pipe tobacco. Not a very heavy one

restaurant Palate

typical light old Glenrothes, with first a little drying oak, green tea, eglantine tea, then cider apples, honey and a little quince juice

timer Finish

rather short, fruity, delicately spicy. Apple juice. Whispers… More oak in the aftertaste
