The Glenrothes, 25-Year-Old, Speyside, Single Malt Scotch Whisky (43%) (New Bottling)
- Scotch Whisky
Description
Prepare to be intrigued by the unique combination of ripe peaches, liquid caramel, and zesty orange peel that lead on the nose. This is complemented by a rich, nutty sweetness, marzipan, and gentle, fragrant notes. The interplay of creamy vanilla, ripe stone fruit, and orange oil on the palate is a delightful surprise, enhanced by toasted almonds, Swiss milk chocolate, delicate oak notes, and a lingering sweet spice. The finish is a perfect blend of rich and sweet, silky nuttiness and persisting fragrance.

Barley
Barley is a key ingredient in the production of some of the world's most renowned spirits, particularly whiskey and Scotch whisky. Malted barley is used as the primary grain in many single malt and blended Scotch whiskies, where it contributes a distinct malty, nutty, and sometimes smoky flavour profile. In addition to Scotch, barley is also a staple in the production of Irish whiskey, where it often lends a smoother, creamier taste. The versatility of barley as a grain makes it a favorite for creating complex and deeply nuanced spirits cherished by enthusiasts worldwide.
