    Great review. I used to love the Glenrothes Sherry cask as a value bottle. Loved that single cask you guys brought to the Deanston dinner. May have to give this one a shot sometime.

    One of these days I will branch out and try some bottles from this distillery. Great review!

    Nicely done gentlemen, the Glenrothes 18 I have yet to see since the vintages are still about in my area. Maybe when the age stated version come out I will them a try. Cheers to the best drams!

    Another awesome review guys. Glenrothes was one of my first ever whiskies, think it was the Select Reserve.

    Not tried the 18. The others haven't ever really blown me away but I can imagine it is one distillery where independent bottles would be better than their core range.
    (PS I'll be that pronunciation guy again. The middle part of the name is pronounced like raw, rather than row.)

    My what a difference 4 years makes. I'm watching this in 2022, and I'd bet $120 for this today would be a steal today.

    Super cool distillery. The bottles are designed after old school medicine bottles. However, the Whisky Maker's Cut is so much better to me. It's also at 48.8%. Helps a ton! The new line is awesome! You guys nailed this bottle! Try the Maker's Cut!

      Oh and it's Glen-roth-es. Like "Roth IRA"

      Hey 42LGK, we really enjoy scotch and like to have fun. We're pretty sure that shines through, but we're also trying to provide good content and continue the conversation around scotch. Hope to see you around the live shows on Thursday nights! ~Mark

    Glad these are natural color now because I've enough of the young NAS Glenrothes that had that artificial caramel taste that really muted them. I tried the new 12yo @ $44 and it is better but still light style-wise but that is the distillery profile, they soar @ 20+ years but $$$$. Great review guys.

    • @neilstucky6265

      They’ve never used artificial coloring. Not even in the reserves

    I love this bottle. Its $108 around me. Its a solid 3.0 in my book. Im just happy andrew didnt hate it, lol.

  • @franklampard6316
    @franklampard6316 5 лет назад +1

    I’ve had a few bottles of Glenrothes over the past couple of years and they all improved as the bottle went down and oxidized a bit. Not sure if that will happen to your bottling, or even if you guys can leave it alone long enough to oxidize ;-)

    @neilstucky6265 5 лет назад

    Solid review with an explanation of the new line, but it’s distracting that u mangle the name lol. The new line is very hit or miss. I preferred the vintages b/c of their ex bourbon cask influence. That’s now been totally eliminated from the line

    • @Scotch4Dummies
      @Scotch4Dummies  5 лет назад +1

      we're always screwing up pronunciations... but I do agree with you on the vintages and special single casks bottlings! ~Mark

    • @neilstucky6265
      @neilstucky6265 5 лет назад

      Thanks for the response. Glenrothes seems to be undoing what made them unique. It’s odd, and I’m curious how sales will be impacted by eliminating vintages which had a niche audience that devoured them. I also do NOT get why they’ve gone sherry exclusive. Ex bourbon casks add a ton of flavor
