Glenrothes

Located in the village of Rothes in Speyside, Glenrothes is a key distillery under Edrington. Since its founding in 1879, it has been known for producing fruity, well-balanced whiskies that play an essential role in blended Scotch. Its long fermentation and slow distillation yield layered and delicate spirits. The core range often matures in Sherry casks, delivering notes of raisins, orange peel, and cinnamon.

Glenrothes emphasizes flavor maturity over age, labeling bottlings by vintage year rather than age statements. In recent years, it has refocused on its single malt identity with acclaimed releases like Glenrothes 18 Year Old, retaining its signature round bottle and bright orange label.
