Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
straw (surprisingly pale)
air Nose
a tad less richly fruity than the 1969, and rather more citrusy, which is a tad unusual with old Glenrothes in my experience. Also a wee bit grassier but other than that, pollens, honeys and ripe apples and plums are well there yet again. A nice, elegant nose
restaurant Palate
this baby was a tad more discreet than the 1969 on the nose, but it's the opposite that happens on the palate, even if this one has more apparent oak (and spices, especially cinnamon). A bigger body too. Citrons, maybe a little mustard from the wood, pepper, ginger, bitter orange marmalade… I think this one was bottled at the right moment, as the oak grows bigger over time
timer Finish
long, peppery, spicy, a tad tea-ish. Orange marmalade
