Tasting Notes
Appearance: An amber hue with lingering oils. Nose: Earthy notes on the nose with clove, poached pears and honeycomb. Palate: Gentle spice mix greets the palate with lasting cloves that dries with citrus peel marmalade and fresh honey. Finish: A long spicy finish that leaves a warm tingle on the front of the tongue.

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.
