Product description
In the autumn of 2018, Glenrothes Distillery broke with a quarter-century tradition of releasing whiskies in vintage versions.
The new series called Soleo Collection consists of five whiskies, four of which are offered in age versions - 10, 12, 18 and 25 years old and one, Whisky Maker's Cut bottled without an age statement, but with the alcohol content raised to 48.8%. The entire collection is made of distillates aged exclusively in sherry casks, a large part of first fill. The name Soleo Collection comes from the process of drying grapes in the sun, later used to produce Pedro Ximénez sherry.
Nose : rich and fresh, blossoming apple tree, oranges, apricots, nectarines, banana cake, milk chocolate, cappuccino, candied ginger, lemongrass and cloves.
Palate: strong sherry notes, vanilla, caramel, cocoa powder, orange marmalade, honey roasted almonds, pepper, ginger, cloves and oak.
Finish: fairly long, with notes of sherry-soaked oak, cinnamon, pepper, vanilla and a hint of plum jam.
