Rosebank 25 YO
$3,800.00
DESCRIPTION
The Rosebank distillery is settled on the banks of the Forth-Clyde canal near Falkirk and has been mothballed since 1993. Rosebank had the highest reputation of any Lowland malt, an area well known for their triple distilled expressions. The 1890’s saw such high demand for the make that many customers had to be content with allocations smaller than ordered.
Rosebank is still available as a cask strength release in the ‘Rare Malts’ collection along with several Independent releases on the market. As a special double act we currently have limited quantities of the 12 year old under the ‘Flora & Fauna’ label as well as a showcase 25 year old bottling distilled in 1981 and bottled at 61.4%. This release is fully matured in American oak with only 4,710 bottles released.
This is again a must for any serious whisky enthusiast or collector.
Distillery Tasting Notes…
“Excellent texture and oilier than you’d expect from such a lush nose. Sweet at first, the apple flavours emerge strongly; soon developing an intense mixed spice note. Spiced tea loaf. Some cedar dryness. Mouth-drying, with a whiff of sooty smoke, and autumn fruits.”
