2009 Claxton's Warehouse No.8 Glenrothes 11 Year Old Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)

An initial scent of honeycombe is sublime, giving way to fruit cake, cinnamon and sprinklings of white pepper. Changes trajectory on the palate with a deliciously bittersweet fruit'n'nut chocolate theme. Full and rounded through the middle, chewy tannins and buzzing spices climax at the finish. Madeira cake aftertaste. A sweeter-styled Glenrothes that packs a punch. 69 bottles from a Madeira Wine cask. 58.1% Alc./Vol. Non chill filtered.
