Gordon & Macphail Glenrothes 2007 16YO Refill Sherry Butt 700ml 62.7%

This 16-year-old Glenrothes 2007, bottled in 2023 by Gordon & MacPhail for their Connoisseurs Choice Cask Strength range, is a standout single cask release. Aged in a refill sherry butt, this whisky is presented at a powerful 62.7% cask strength, thanks to Glenrothes’ practice of filling their casks at full strength rather than the typical 63.5%. With 648 bottles produced, this sherried Glenrothes is at an age where it truly begins to shine, promising a splendid and robust dram. Nose: Autumnal spices harmonize with the rich aroma of stewed fruits. Palate: Sweet honey and Morello cherry flavors blend with peanut brittle and tart raspberries. Finish: A full-bodied finish featuring notes of oak and toasted almonds.
