Rosebank
30 Year Old Release 1 2020 Edition
(0.75l,
48.6%*)
*please note that the ABV of this bottle may vary
Once dubbed "the King of the Lowlands", the 1840-established Rosebank Distillery was shut down in 1993, and for the longest time, it looked like it wouldn't ever open again. But in 2017 Ian MacLeod reopened this cult Spiritual place and released some of the old stocks.
This Rosebank 30-Year-Old is a 1990 vintage Lowland Single Malt, a vatting of refill Sherry butts (62%) and refill Bourbon hogsheads (38%), matured for no less than three decades, before being bottled in 2020. The result is a complex, yet elegant Whisky with soft notes of Chantilly cream, caramel wafers, gooseberry, almonds, honey, lemon, and nutmeg on the nose, and notes of chamomile, pears, citrus fruit, and pineapple on the palate.
A superb release, worthy of its royal heritage.

Whisky or Whiskey? The spelling differs geographically. In Scotland, Japan, and some other parts of the world, distilleries usually spell it Whisky; in Ireland and the USA, they spell it Whiskey.
90% of all Scotch Whisky released in the market is a blend. That’s a hell of a lot.
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 Scotch Whisky is made in Scotland using a pot still distillation process at a single distillery, with malted barley as the only grain ingredient. It must be matured in oak casks in Scotland for at least three years (most Single Malts are matured longer, though).
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.
Scotland is home to more than 20 million casks of maturing Whisky. That’s four for every person living there. Nuts!
