What makes Rosebank stand out from its Scotch brethren? Its departure from the typical double-distillation method used all around Scotland. See, Rosebank distillery was known for using the traditional Lowland style of triple-distillation. Right off the bat, you know you’re in for something a wee bit different.

Now, bottles from Rosebank are in high demand. Why? Well, partly because the distillery was mothballed in 1993. This is some rare juice, to say the least.

Aged for 22 years, this Rosebank from the Rare Malts Selection was bottled in 2003 at natural cask strength. Limited edition bottle number 4564 is a gem that shouldn't be missed by any Malthead.

Can Scotch go bad? Technically, an unopened bottle of Scotch can last forever. Air is the only true evil to Whisky; once the liquid is oxidized it is no longer immortal. After opening, as long as you store your Whisky in a cool, dry place, it will last another 5 years.
90% of all Scotch Whisky released in the market is a blend. That’s a hell of a lot.
Blended Whiskies are the result of years of craftsmanship and dedication. A master blender does not simply wake up one day with a profound ability to create a cohesive and enjoyable liquid. From nosing the liquid to working out quantities of each different grain and malt to go into the blend, a master blender can take years, if not decades, to train.
Whisky distilling goes way back to 1494 when the first recorded batch was made by a posse of monks who acquired about 60 gallons of barley and decided to turn it into "aqua vitae". They created the first 1,500 bottles of Scotch in History.
For what was described by the experts as one of the best distilleries in the world, the Rosebank has met an ignonimous end. Sold to British Waterways in 2002, the site is being developed into restaurants and apartments.
Single malt stands for around 10% of the Scotch market. This is a malt containing only one grain, legally required to be barley in Scotland, and made at a single distillery.

A blended Scotch is a combination of different malts from different distilleries. It is typically made from grain Whisky but does include malt Whisky to give it a more complex body.
