Gordon & Macphail Glenrothes ?Discovery? 11YO 43% 700ml

An 11 year old Glenrothes which has been bottled by Gordon & MacPhail for its Discovery bottling series. The series separates single malts into three categories, 'Sherry', 'Smoky' or 'Bourbon' to give a (not so subtle) clue to its flavour profile. This is a wonderful sherried whisky, packed full of fruity and chocolatey notes.

Nose Cinnamon butter, chocolate covered toffee and toasted malt, with sherried dried fruit and more baking spices.

Palate Forest fruit jam on fresh toast, perhaps slightly burnt, with stewed orchard fruit and more cinnamon.

Finish Orange peel, a hint of raisin and melted dark chocolate.
