The whisky is comprised of the very same casks chosen for the 1st release, that were put aside to mature for a longer period of time in both refill sherry and ex-bourbon barrels. This is the first vintage of the Glenrothes matured entirely in refill casks, bottled by Gordon Motion, Malt Master John Ramsay’s successor. Non-chill filtered and bottled at 43% ABV.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nPick up your bottle today!                            \u003cdiv class=\"caskers-brand-info\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"story-subtitle\"\u003eAbout The Glenrothes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n                                            Situated adjacent to the Burn of Rothes in the Speyside region of Scotland, The Glenrothes Distillery was founded by in 1879 by James Stuart, who had previously been employed at The Macallan Distillery. The distillery's history is marred by tragedy — in 1897, construction workers who were attempting to expand the capacity of the distillery started a fire that consumed much of the distillery.  Twenty-five years later, a fire at the distillery's original warehouse caused the loss of 200,000 gallons of maturing whisky.   Despite having lost ten copper-pot stills in various accidents since its founding, the Glenrothes Distillery is now a picture of tranquility.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nGlenrothes Single Malt Scotch Whisky is made from plump, ripe Scottish barley that is malted and fermented using water sourced from the Ardcanny and Brauchhill springs, which are situated adjacent to the distillery.  Following fermentation, the grains are twice distilled through the Glenrothes' copper-pot stills.  The stills, which were designed and fashioned to be exact replicas of the original stills installed in 1879, are incredibly tall and uniquely shaped, which contributes to the overall light and sweet flavor of the whisky.  After distillation, The Glenrothes' stillmen remove the heads and tails of the distillate and preserve only the \"hearts\"for maturation (the hearts comprise less than 20% of the entire distillate).                                        \u003cdiv class=\"brand-link\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.caskers.com\/spirits\/?brand_dropdown=3944\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eExplore all The Glenrothes bottles \u0026gt;\u0026gt;\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"caskers-spirit-type-info\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"story-subtitle\"\u003eAbout Scotch\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eScotch is the most popular whisky in the world and is considered the king of them all!
