    Description

    One of the main selling points of this whisky is its rarity. No longer in production, the Glenrothes 1988 (2nd Release) is a highly sought-after bottle that is increasingly hard to find. The Glenrothes 1988 (2nd Release) offers exceptional value for an aged sherry whisky. Crafted from a vatting of first fill American oak sherry hogsheads and refill sherry butts, it delivers a depth of flavor that is truly remarkable.

    Tasting Note by Glenrothes:
    Runny honey, rich fruitcake and walnut character on the nose, giving way to a full, decadent palate of creamy vanilla, cooking chocolate, figs and coffee beans. Powerful and rich on the finish, with some sweet spice and stewed fruits.
