Nose: Gingerbread, stewed apple and earthy vanilla, then soft tropical fruit notes and a hint of sherried funk.
Palate: Creamy hazelnut, dried fruit and a hint of cinnamon. Hints of chocolate, old leather, dried herbs and tobacco add depth among Galia melon and honeyed oak.
Finish: Long and sweet with a touch of baking spice and more stewed fruits.
Overall: A perfect introduction to all things that make Glenrothes fantastic.
