The Glenrothes 10 Year

Buonissimo al naso, molto legnoso, in bocca é diverso non rispecchia il naso, si ammorbidisce ma cresce di gusto aumente notevolmente di intensità fino a quasi l'astringenza Molto interessante!

An inviting, warm color in the glass, this young Glenrothes smells like butterscotch candies, heather honey, sweet barley, and honey crisp apples. The taste is on par with the nose, and in addition to more heather honey, a cherry twizzler note comes across. The malt comes across as oatmeal-like, and dried herbs like savory and marjoram accompany it. The finish is light, pleasant, and melt-in-your-mouth, and the aftertaste is sweet. This is a simple, though not simplistic, whisky, and having had a bottle of the more mature vintage releases, you can see what it’s aiming for. At $34 a bottle it makes for a better-than-usual everyday sipper.

Starts sweet, a bit of sour covers it up, and some spice to it for my novice tongue. Works for me!
