The Glenrothes Vintage 2004 Single Malt Scotch Whisky Singapore is a 700mL Whisky with 43% Alcohol By Volume (ABV) from Scotland sold by Bevbrands Singapore.

Limited to 3,150 bottles, The Glenrothes Vintage 2004 is made from a selection of American oak Sherry-seasoned casks laid down in 2004.

The expression is described as having notes of mango, citrus, “fudge-like” honey and “sweet, oaky vanilla”.

“The vintage releases from The Glenrothes are always highly anticipated by the team at the distillery,” said Alasdair Anderson, distillery manager for The Glenrothes.

“The Vintage 2004 is among the best I’ve tasted, with a real sweetness from the Sherry casks adding the signature fruity Glenrothes spirit.”

A 2004 vintage Glenrothes, distilled in March and left in sherry-seasoned oak until January 2017, when the single malt was bottled at 43% ABV. The sherry casks add a wonderful sweetness to the Speysider, with a hint of subtle smokiness in there too.

TASTING NOTES
Nose: Mango ice cream, with honeyed citrus peel, berry jam and boozy Christmas cake.

Palate: Creamy and silky, with more tropical fruit alongside citrus curd, oaky, earthy vanilla pod and a savoury herbaceous note.

Finish: Baking spice and dusty cocoa, with smoked nuts.
