TASTING NOTES GLENROTHES 2007/2017 ADELPHI

Nose

the alcohol content is high, but not excessive, and well integrated. Dried fruits (raisins and dates) initially, then candied fruits and orange peel. Spicy peaks of black pepper are perceived at times, without being too pronounced. Honey, vanilla and almond (pronounced) complete the flavor profile.

Palate

the alcohol is well integrated here as well. Notes of cocoa towards the finish, with traces of almond and hazelnut.

Finish

long persistence and moderately complex. It reveals spices, including white pepper and cinnamon, dried fruits and bitter orange jam.

The rather high gradation allows the spirit to express itself to the fullest. This whisky is an excellent product that, despite its unaddressed age, has a rather good complexity. Intensity and finish are above average.

Rating: 88
