Single Malt
The Glenrothes // Speyside, Scotland
RARE
On the 10th of July, 1969 this Speyside Scotch was placed in a refill hogshead cask. Number 11485 to be exact.
Then we walked on the moon, went to Woodstock and heard Abbey Road. Decades passed, and it was finally tapped at cask strength on May 28, 2015, yielding only 133 bottles.

Tasting Notes
"It's fitting this whisky comes from the Summer of Love, because it still has a fine measure of youth, vigor and passion left in it. Though of a considerable age, fresh dark berry, cherry and apple are evident both on the nose and in the glass, with dried figs and dates lending both sweetness and acidity. Dark caramel, toffee and vanilla provide a strong base to carry these flavors, with a medium finish (not long, but not too short either.) Pretty far out stuff, man!"
