Glenrothes 40 Years Old – A sublime world-class whisky experience

A luxurious and refined whisky experience

The Glenrothes 40 Years Old is a whisky that speaks to both the heart and the palate. This exclusive single malt is a masterpiece from the Speyside distillery Glenrothes and contains everything you could want from a whisky of the absolute highest class.

Matured for a full 40 years, the whisky unfolds with a deep mahogany colour and an aroma that immediately invites you to immerse yourself in. You are met with intense notes of dried fruit, smoke, licorice, oak and a discreet spicy warmth – a complex and harmonious aroma that gives a foretaste of what is in store for you.

Aroma – A symphony of elegant notes

The aroma of The Glenrothes 40 Years Old is rich and inviting. Dried apricots, dates and prunes are prominent, while liquorice and spices add depth. Light smoke and oak round off the experience in a classy way, creating an aroma that is as balanced as it is complex.

Taste – Silky, intense and deeply satisfying

At first taste, Glenrothes 40 Years Old is silky smooth and extremely well-rounded. A rich sweetness emerges with notes of honey, caramel and dark chocolate, followed by hints of spice and liquorice. The slightly smoky character and oak nuances provide structure and balance.

The flavour profile develops layer by layer, ending with a warm and lingering aftertaste, where dried fruit and spices once again come into play. This is a whisky to be enjoyed slowly and respectfully.

Elegant presentation – Perfect as a gift

The bottle is stylishly designed with an elegant label and presented in an exclusive wooden box. This makes the Glenrothes 40 Years Old an ideal gift idea for the whisky enthusiast – or as a highlight in the serious collection.
