Score 91/100 · Whisky Advocate, Dec 2006

The most recent vintage from the 1980s. This whisky is very bright and lively. It dances on the palate with orange, tangerine, and lemon gum drops, balanced by vanilla, light caramel, hint of anise, and delicate oak. A whisky with great finesse and drinkability.

About the producer

Glenrothes 1:1
Glenrothes

The Glenrothes has a long and turbulent history involving fires and many changes in ownership. Despite this, the classic Speyside whisky distillery has become a highly sought-after single malt Scotch and long been a key constituent in the ever-popular Cutty Sark blend.
