  Glenrothes 12 years old Soleo Collection Single Speyside Malt Whisky 40%

  Item no.: 22227865454-18337

  Glenrothes is known for its sherry-driven fingerprint, and the 12 Year Old Soleo Collection is the distillery's way of showing exactly what a proper sherry cask can do for a whisky.

  Palate

  Soft and round, with orange marmalade, honey and a hint of spice.

  Finish
