{"product_id":"the-glenrothes-peated-cask-reserve","title":"The Glenrothes Peated Cask Reserve","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis exceptional dram represents two great milestones for The Glenrothes Distillery; it’s both their first cask finish and their first peated expression, the inspiration for this very unusual peated Glenrothes coming from the distillery’s the 1887 merger with the Islay Distillery Co Ltd.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaking a peated Glenrothes required a bit thinking outside of the proverbial “box” because Glenrothes doesn’t produce peated spirit and therefore the only option was to finish some classic Glenrothes in Islay casks. The team decided on Vintage 1992 and the whisky was promptly given a temporary home in Islay casks. We haven’t been lucky enough to be told which Islay distillery the casks came from, but the smart money’s on Bunnahabhain as they were owned by the Islay Distillery Co Ltd. The finish lasted about nine months, in which time the Islay barrels added a kiss of peat smoke to complement the usual Glenrothes characteristics and the result is a deliciously smoky dram, packed with lemon fruitiness and spice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ciframe allowfullscreen=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Y453CDCxsFE\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e","brand":"The Glenrothes Distillery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46489895108687,"sku":"WC0043","price":105.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/1185\/7487\/files\/the_glenrothes_peated_cask_reserve.png?v=1787700882","url":"https:\/\/thewhiskyclub.com.au\/products\/the-glenrothes-peated-cask-reserve","provider":"The Whisky Club AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
