The Glenrothes 10 Year

Bright, light, spice

(Vita Dulcis Advent Calendar 9/24) Nose: cooked and stewed fruit then baked with buttery crumble, gentle and fruity, smooth and creamy, quite light but actually quite pleasant, in the background are some mild exotic fruits like banana and mango as well - water let’s some silky vanilla enfold on the nose Palate: very light and almost watery at first, it is spiced fruit juice with a kick, the flavor profile then enfolds slowly and becomes quite enjoyable, cream cheese on soft wheat bread with caramelized fruits and nuts crumbled on top Finish: mild apple vinegar and a slight bitterness added to the fruit juice flavors Verdict: an easy, well manners and relaxed dram but after the initial taste it becomes a little boring

Toffee and honey
