Product details
The Glenrothes 15 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky is a refined expression of Speyside elegance, born from over a century of distilling heritage and the patient maturation of its signature new make spirit. At 15 years, the whisky reaches a point of sensorial maturity where ripe fruit notes evolve into something more fragrant and refined. Carefully matured in European oak sherry-seasoned casks, this whisky exemplifies the distillery’s unwavering commitment to balance—preserving the delicate, citrus-laced clarity of its spirit while embracing the bold character imparted by oak. Master Whisky Maker Laura Rampling's deep understanding of The Glenrothes' maturation process ensures this balance is achieved with graceful precision, creating a dram that’s both nuanced and expressive.
On the nose, The Glenrothes 15 bursts with aromas of dark brown sugar, baked orchard fruits, and bright sweet spice, followed by inviting hints of hazelnut praline, candied orange peel, maple syrup, and soft worn leather. The palate is richly layered and mouth-coating, offering flavors of caramelised pears, dark chocolate, and sweet baking spices like cinnamon, clove, and cardamom, rounded out by pecan pie, crystallised ginger, and orange marmalade. The finish is long, smooth, and sweet, with a lingering brightness from its spiced complexity. This whisky pairs beautifully with aged cheeses, roasted duck with orange glaze, or desserts such as pecan tart and ginger-spiced cake—each complementing the harmony of boldness and elegance within the spirit.
