18 year old single malt from Glenrothes, released as part of the Soleo Collection. This series was named after the process of sun-drying grapes for the production of sherry in Jerez, and as such you should expect plenty of sherry notes throughout the range. This one features a very high proportion of first-fill sherry seasoned oak cask matured whisky at its core.
Decadent vanilla and orange, with hints of cherry and almond developing.
Still packing plenty of dried fruit notes, alongside crisp pear and a spicy touch of stem ginger.
Lasting sweetness of vanilla and pear, with peppery flourishes.

This was very pleasant! Not mind blowing but a nice dram. As a gift to share with my dad on his 80th birthday it ticked all the right boxes. Would I buy it again? Probably not in all honesty, it didn't blow me away. But it was a nice dram. Not something I'd restock, but as a gesture it was lovely and capped a lovely day of fishing, a nice meal out and an end if evening celebration.
Very smooth, a pleasant surprise having not been exposed to much from Glenrothes. This is inspired me to try more of their offerings. A richer experience that the Glenlivet 18 in my opinion.
I don’t usually rate Glenrothes so highly, but this is very smooth & fruity. Oranges, sultanas, vanilla & Bakewell tart.
There is wonderful fruity complexity and spicy roundness at the same with smooth vanilla sweetness wrapping it all up. Gotta get another bottle at once.
Not a bad taste, but very prickly on the tongue and unsmooth sensation. Won’t buy again at this price range.
