Glenrothes 43 Year Old 1973 (cask 11099) - Cask Strength Collection Rare Reserve (Signatory)

If you would have though that maintaining a series called the Cask Strength Collection Rare Reserve would have been difficult... I gotta say that Signatory aren't really any showing signs of that being the case.

Take this bottling here for example; distilled on the 30th September 1973 at Glenrothes Distillery, this handsome rascal spent 43 years maturing in a hogshead (11099) before it was charged at a cask strength 41.8% ABV on the 1st February 2017.

It's part of a limited outturn of just 149 individually numbered decanter bottles, and there's no added colour. This will make for an impressive dram, from a very impressive range.

Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt

Nose

An aromatic fusion of heather, Scotch tablet, dry barley and smoked almonds, with a tinge of cinnamon and allspice.

Palate

Soft vanilla leads into red velvet cake, rich honey, toasted walnuts and stone fruits. Smoky and delicate peppery spice takes the backdrop.

Finish

Very subtle hints of chilli chocolate, earthy tobacco and stewed fruits.
