The Glenrothes is located in the town of Rothes in the Speyside region of Scotland. Since its founding in 1879, it has been renowned for its unique distillery spirit and commitment to quality. Situated by the Burn of Rothes, the pure water source provides the light and clean base for its whiskies.
The Glenrothes 18 Years Old belongs to the brand's Soleo Collection. The term 'Soleo' originates from the traditional sun-drying process of grapes in the Jerez region of Spain, symbolizing the distillers' tribute to sherry cask craftsmanship. Unlike many distilleries that use mixed casks, this 18-year-old expression is matured exclusively in high-quality sherry seasoned oak casks. Although costly, this practice imparts a captivating amber hue, deep dried fruit aromas, and a creamy texture rare in Speyside whiskies.
The distillery's uniquely shaped stills with tall, slender necks help capture light, floral alcohol vapors. This is why Glenrothes maintains an elegant balance even after long maturation, avoiding being overwhelmed by heavy woody notes, and perfectly interpreting the refined style brought by slow distillation.
