Speyside Spectacle with a Bourbon soul.
The tiny town of Rothes by the River Spey is home to four distilleries and has Scotch embedded in its DNA. One of those Whisky-making establishments is the Glenrothes Distillery (its name is literally "the valley of Rothes"), with history dating back to 1879. With ancient recipes and tradition by their side, they have been making award-winning Whiskies for decades.
One of their blockbusters is the Bourbon Cask Reserve, a certified Kosher expression aged in ex-Bourbon American oak casks. Made from Scottish barley and distilled in copper-pot stills, using the purest water of two nearby springs, this particular Single Malt is a breathtaking concoction that won two gold medals at the 2016 WSWA Tasting Competition. With abundant notes of coconut and vanilla, it's a perfect warm shelter from the mad rapid flow of modern life. Take it slow and neat.

Scotch Whisky is almost never aged in new barrels. Bourbon and Tennessee Whiskey casks are usually used for maturation, while many times ageing process and flavour finishing is concluded in various wine casks, such as sherry or port.

Ratings & Reviews
Mathew,
A little light and not the smoothest. Good not great.
Taylor,
An interesting dram. It leaves much to be desired but good for the price point. Vanilla and alcohol up front with some coconut sweetness on the rear.
Robyn,
We loved this. It was light enough for the proverbial cocktail before dinner, and very nice as an after dinner drink. The flavor is reminiscent of bourbon, with a nice finish. A great go to Scotch
Gregory,
Full flavor. Neat is the only way to get the full flavors. I notice the cocnut more than the vanilla but the orange and honey come more in the after effects. All in all the Bourbon Oak casks gove this a great taste.
Jasson,
An excellent dram. I've had some of their other bottlings and wasn't entirely convinced, but this one set me straight. Delicious.
