Description

The Glenrothes 1988 2nd Edition is a distinguished vintage release, bottled in 2016 after 28 years of maturation. It was aged in a combination of first fill American sherry hogsheads and refill sherry butts, resulting in a rich and fruity whisky with greater intensity and depth than its first edition.
