Glenrothes Distillery The Glenrothes Select Reserve Single Malt 43% Vanilla pod and cocoa. Intensely sweet on the nose with demerara sugar dominating the top notes and chocolate with lemon malted barley in support. The palate thin but with a touch of honey is no reflection of the intense sweetness of the nose, then a squirt of grapefruit on the mid palate and a finish of grape and dark chocolate. 80 The Glenrothes 1998 Vintage 14yo Single Malt 43% The malted barley dominates this nose with orange marmalade, toffee and the sweetest orange citrus. Viscous and gorgeously mouth coating this dram is velvety on the tongue with sweet sherry, ginger and pepper and a finish of sherried oak. 87
