The Glenrothes Lustau Cask whisky was distilled in 1992 and matured until 2014 in Hogshead casks. Having rested in these casks, the whisky was then introduced into an American oak butt, formerly containing Oloroso Sherry, from Bodegas Lustau, the famous Spanish Sherry producer, to add an extra layer of complexity to the spirit. The whisky was then monitored closely until, at last, it was judged to be perfectly balanced and mature. Only then was it bottled.

A delicious release from The Glenrothes Lustau Cask Wine Merchant’s Collection range. This whisky was finished in a cask that was previously home to tasty Lustau Sherry! A release of 648 bottles.

This 1992 Glenrothes was aged for more than 20 years in hogsheads before being finished in an American-oak butt which was previously used for Lustau oloroso sherry. This is creamy and full-bodied with notes of lemon treacle and citrus toffee.

With more than three centuries of experience, Berry Bros. & Rudd, owner of The Glenrothes, has long-standing relationships with some of the world’s leading wine producers. It seemed only natural to draw on these to create a range of truly remarkable range of whiskies.
