Glenrothes 1997 Whiskybase
Lot number: 091-6765
Winning bid: £75
Hidden in a tree-lined gorge, the Glenrothes distillery is nestled in the core of the Speyside region, a stone’s throw from the Burn of Rothes and the Mannoch Hills. Producing malt whiskies using exact replicas of the original 1879 pot stills, the Glenrothes hallmark is to use Scottish barley, malted in traditional Saladin boxes. The product is bottled in a characteristic, squat, bulbous vessel, complete with the Malt Master’s signature on every selection. Offering a Single Vintage, Reserve or Special Release, all marrying an individual vintage with a reserve, the Glenrothes Malts are notoriously complex in flavour.
