The Glenrothes 42 Year Old

AGED TO PERFECTION NOT CONVENTION

Richly sweet with brown sugar and honeycomb. Creamy with vanilla and toasted almonds. Some light oak and distinctive orange oil fragrance.

A beautifully balanced whisky bottled only at the perfect moment, 42 years. The 42 boasts an intensely aromatic fragrance, distinctly sweet taste, yet a smooth, velvety mouthfeel. Bottled at natural colour, like all our whiskies, its naturally deep amber tone is a result of the four decades' long maturation in oak casks.

Take their word

Part science, part alchemy, and a little bit of magic, the result is a beautifully elegant whisky that truly allows the bright and vibrant character of The Glenrothes to sing.
