Nestled in a quiet corner of Speyside, The Glenrothes Distillery has been crafting some of the world’s finest whisky since 1879. Hidden from the main street in the town of Rothes, the distillery lies at the foot of the Mannoch Hills beside the Rothes burn.The Glenrothes is an award-winning whisky made with integrity, authenticity and, above all, with expert craft. The water used in the process of making Glenrothes comes from five natural water sources, including the Ardcanny and the Brauchhill, just a couple of miles upstream.The slow distillation eliminates more impurities, allowing for the production of a more delicately flavoured spirit while the taller necks of their distinctive copper stills allow the alcohol to rise and mellow out further, providing the perfect foundation for our award-winning single malt.Sherry seasoning brings a unique depth of flavour to the maturation process. That’s why The majority of The Glenrothes is matured in sherry seasoned oak casks adding depth to the flavour during the maturation process. The colour of each dram is never altered and comes naturally from the long ageing in the barrels.
