Description

Distilled in 1980 and matured for over four decades in a single sherry cask, this 41-year-old Glenrothes is a rare testament to time, craftsmanship, and Speyside elegance. Bottled at 41.7% ABV, it delivers a richly layered whisky that balances the depth of long maturation with the distillery’s signature fruity and sherried character. On the nose, discover notes of dried figs, raisins, orange zest, and gentle spices, layered over soft oak and honeyed undertones. The palate is luxurious and complex, featuring sherry-soaked fruits, dark chocolate, toffee, and delicate spice that weave together seamlessly. The finish is long, warming, and refined, leaving lingering impressions of rich sherry, subtle oak, and mellow sweetness. A whisky designed for collectors and connoisseurs, this 41-year-old Glenrothes is an extraordinary expression of age, finesse, and single-cask character — a true celebration of Speyside craftsmanship.

about the distillery

Glenrothes Distillery

The Glenrothes distillery is a Speyside single malt Scotch whisky distillery. The Glenrothes distillery is located in the town of Rothes in the heart of the Speyside region of Scotland. The distillery sits beside the Burn of Rothes, hidden in a glen on the edge of the town.
The distillery was built in 1878 by James Stuart & Co, who then also worked the nearby Macallan distillery. The first whisky ran off the stills on the 28th December 1879, the same day as the Tay Bridge disaster. The distillery itself had a shaky start and turbulent history. Over-proof whisky is notoriously highly flammable and the distillery has paid the price. Extension work began in 1896 on a second malt kiln, and an increase in stills from two to four but, before the work was finished, a fire in December 1897 caused serious damage. The distillery saw further damage with a serious explosion in 1903. Then, in 1922, a fire in Warehouse Number One caused the loss of 200,000 imperial gallons (910,000 L) of whisky. Another fire in 1962 afforded the opportunity for expansion and a further re-build in 1982 extended the still hall to five wash stills and five spirit stills.
