Tasting Notes
Nose: An initial combination of sweet toffee and floral rose fades into a decadent aroma of caramel chocolates.
Palate: Opens with a big hit of tannic intensity. Leather and wood combine creating a whisky of great stature which slowly starts to dissipate allowing sweeter elements to shine: toffee-drizzled figs, dark plum fruits and blackberries drizzled in cream.
Finish: A gentle profile of thick runny honey.

Admittedly, I haven't tried every whisky in the world. I like the Laphroaig, peaty and uncompromising end of the single malt scale. This is my current favourite. A brutal and beautiful drink. Harsh and refined; sour and sweet. Dangerously tasty. A real find for me, this one.
I acquired mine after someone had poured it away, and used the empty as a candle holder. Despite imbibing this Glenrothes from a drain, it was decent. 57.1% seemed to remove any of the drain ickiness. It has also somewhat dulled the pain I'm still in from recently trapping my, ahem, in my zipper.
