We find Glenrothes can be on the gingery side and this is no exception (think root beer or pickled ginger). Grassiness is also evident before the sweet malt gains ground. By the finish, an intense bittersweetness throws the profile slightly out of whack. Experiment with gradual dilution to find its sweet spot. Refill butt matured, presumably sherry but not stated. 683 bottles. 62.8% Alc./Vol. Non chill filtered. Tasted from a 15ml sample.
