The Glenrothes Sherry Cask Reserve was introduced to the Speyside distillery’s core range in 2014, and it’s definitely one for the Sherry lovers out there, as this is the first single malt from Glenrothes to be completely matured in first-fill Sherry casks.
Nose: Plump raisins, candied ginger and crumbly shortbread dusted with sugar. Crushed walnuts and oak appear further on.
Palate: Flamed orange zest and cinnamon, with more ginger and spice from the cask up front. This swiftly turns to juicy sultanas and raisins, with perhaps a tiny wisp of earthy smoke.
Finish: Brown sugar, citrus peel and nutmeg last on the finish.
