GLENROTHES VINTAGE 1992 / 2014 22 YO Single Malt Whisky | Second Edition

Glenrothes Vintage 1992/2014 Second Edition 22 YO Single Malt Whisky 70cl Bottle - 44.3% Vol

The Second Edition of the Single Vintage 1992 was aged in Sherry Butts and American Hogsheads, unchill-filtered and bottled in 2014 at 44.3% which is at a higher strength than the First Edition.

John Ramsey, the Malt Master at the time, suggested some of the whisky needed more time in the cask, letting it rest for another 10 years. That additional decade of ageing has given it a rich depth of character, making it an extraordinary sipping whisky

Expressive seasoning, nuances of molasses, chocolate and orange peel.

About The Glenrothes Distillery


Nestled in a quiet corner of Speyside, The Glenrothes Distillery has been crafting some of the world’s finest whisky since 1879. Hidden from the main street in the town of Rothes, the distillery lies at the foot of the Mannoch Hills beside the Rothes burn.

The Glenrothes is an award-winning whisky made with integrity, authenticity and, above all, with an expert craft. The water used in the process of making Glenrothes comes from five natural water sources, including the Ardcanny and the Brauchhill, just a couple of miles upstream.

The slow distillation eliminates more impurities, allowing the production of a more delicate flavoured spirit, while the taller necks of their distinctive copper stills allow the alcohol to rise and mellow out further, providing the perfect foundation for their award-winning single malt.

The majority of The Glenrothes is matured in sherry seasoned oak casks adding depth to the flavour during the maturation process. The colour of each dram is never altered and comes naturally from the long ageing in the barrels.
