About
The Glenrothes 1978 Vintage is the last of the highly cherished, and incredibly rare 1970s Vintages from the storied distillery, crafted from a small selection of casks hand-picked by then-Malt Master, John Ramsay, at the very peak of their maturity. If you are lucky enough to find one of the remaining bottles of this 29 year old single malt Scotch, you will be greeted with a silky and seductive whisky with notes of vanilla, caramel fudge and fruit compote, leading to a long and spicy finish. A whisky as rare as it is remarkable.
