Shieldmaidens from Glenrothes 20y

About

Shieldmaidens from Glenrothes is a powerful 20-year-old single malt from Speyside, bottled by The Duchess at an impressive 52.8% ABV. Named to evoke Viking warriors, this whisky's intensity lives up to its bold heritage. With its full strength and complex character, it delivers an unforgettable experience for enthusiasts of robust, mature Speyside malts. In the glass, this whisky reveals a refined balance between fruit and oak. The nose displays natural notes of citrus, green apples, and hints of vanilla and blossom. On the palate, a creamy texture develops with apple sauce, cinnamon, and cane sugar, followed by bitter oak and peppery spice. The finish is long and spicy, with malt, almond, and honey elegantly fading away.
