The Glenrothes Whisky Maker's Cut Speyside Single Malt Whisky (Scotland), 48.8% abv, $100.00, 750 ml

Pours an incredible tawny shade and shows mouth watering aromas of honeyed raisins, ripe dates, golden plums, and butter pastry. In the mouth the whisky is rich and round coating the palate with nary a sharp edge – hedonistic in the best possible way.
