Conceived and crafted by the cellar master himself, using 100% first-fill sherry casks, bottled once the expert's preferred strength has been reached.
The Soleo Collection introduces brand-new whiskies: 10 Years Old, 12 Years Old, Whisky Maker's Cut, 18 Years Old and 25 Years Old. it has replaced the Vintage and Reserve catalog. While the product range has changed significantly, the character remains the same. As ever, old oak sherry casks define The Glenrothes. Almost 90% of the distillery's aging casks have contained sherry, a wine made from white grapes near the Andalusian town of Jerez de la Frontera, Spain.
Nose : Approachable and rich. First polished wood and nuts (toasted hazelnut) dominate, then stewed fruits (baked apples), dried fruits (sweet dates), and soft brown sugar take over. Mossy too, after a while.
Palate : Sweetness and crunchy nuts impress at first, then there’s a smooth, fruity Speyside richness to enjoy. Firm, with a balancing sweetness. Brown sugar and espresso coffee. Warming and pleasant.
Finish : Medium to long, elegantly drying and crisp, completed by a pleasant, sweetly nutty chew-ability.
Terminado brings together Smokehead Islay single malt with tequila. It's the meeting of two restless spirits - and the awakening of a mesmerising whisky.
There, in this tequila cask finish, fiery peat awakes with wild agave. Smoke mixes with chewy meringue. And citrus spins with sweetness. You ain't tasted nothing like this before.
Nez : Le Jane Walker by Johnnie Walker présente des arômes subtils de fruits mûrs, de miel et de vanille, avec une note légèrement fumée. Bouche : En bouche, ce whisky offre des saveurs douces et équilibrées de caramel, de noix et de poivre, avec une touche de chêne. Finish : La finale est longue et chaleureuse, laissant une légère sensation de fumée et de fruits secs en bouche.

This whiskey contains single pot still components aged in ex-bourbon, ex-sherry and ex-malaga wine casks. This maturation gives this whiskey more complexity than its little brother Green Spot, but allows the more complex aspects of the Single Pot Still spirit to be explored in greater depth.
Nose: Notes of resin, candied orange peel and fresh oak.
Mouth: Rich, spicy, creamy, vanilla and orange peel.
