The Glenrothes 12 Year Old - Founder's Collection (The Whisky Baron)
A lovely treat in the form of a well-sherried Glenrothes, distilled back in May 2006. The single malt spent its next 12 years in a single first-fill sherry butt until The Whisky Baron deemed it was time to bottle the liquid. The cask saw an outturn of 670 bottles for the Founder's Collection, coming in at 57% ABV.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Stewed and spiced apples and pears, with a drizzle of caramel and just a touch of pepper spice.
Palate
Freshly baked gingerbread, with oodles more baking spices in tow, namely cinnamon and nutmeg, with buttery shortbread and sultanas.
Finish
Spices continue strongly into a long and dry finish.
