Rosebank 1990 21 Years Limited Edition Lowland Single Malt Scotch Whisky Cask Strength 53.8% Vol. - rare and limited bottling from the closed Distillery Rosebank
his 1990 Vintage Rosebank 21 years-old is a rare triple distilled single malt Scotch whisky from a a famous and long closed Lowland distillery with only 5.886 individually numbered bottles worldwide. Some of the oldest stocks of the lost Lowland classic held by Diageo went into this bottling, only the second official Rosebank since the demise of the Rare Malts series, this 21yo was distilled in 1990 and has been vatted from refill American and European casks. This is a limited edition, non chill-filtered bottling at natural cask-strength, drawn from some of the the Lowland malts, the name recalls its canal-side setting, rich in wild roses, where barges loaded casks for Glasgow and Edinburgh.
Light-bodied, this pale gold 21 year old comes from the last golden age at the distillery. Soft, fruity aromas on the nose give way to a delicate, even rose-scented, floaral character. The palate is tongue-tingling, clean and fresh, becoming silky with a little water before a soft, flowery sweetness and lemony acidity lead to a round, drying finish. Michael Jackson described the whisky as the finest example of a Lowland malt and considered the closure of the distillery a great loss. Jim Murray maintains that Rosebank is the superior Lowlander and should be ranked in the top five of all Scottish malts.
A brilliant and limited rare single malt whisky from the silent distillery Rosebank which is hard to find now.
