Connoisseurs Choice 1988
from Glenrothes Distillery (cask strength)
Created in 1968 by whisky visionary, George Urquhart, over the years this range has featured single malts from almost 100 Scottish distilleries. Comprising more than 2,000 individual bottlings, each Connoisseurs Choice tells its life story through its label: cask type, bottling date, strength, vintage and tasting note.
Nose
Hints of aromatic kaffir lime add a zesty freshness to a pronounced sweetness - apricot jam, peaches in syrup, and brandy snaps. Spicy ginger and toasted malt aromas develop over a vanilla toffee undertone.
Taste
Thick and mouth-coating; warming ginger spice with woody undertones complement sugared red apples.
Finish
Medium-bodied finish with lingering fruity notes.
