品飲筆記：格蘭路思18年以成熟果乾與柑橘皮為先，蜂蜜、焦糖與香草緊接其後，細緻夾帶肉桂、薑與微微橡木香。口感圓潤順滑，酒體溫暖而層次豐富。酒廠介紹：來自經典的斯佩賽產區，格蘭路思以年份與桶調聞名，重視原酒陳年與桶型搭配，這款18年展現了蒸餾與陳釀的細膩功夫。釀造與陳年：以雪莉調性木桶為主，搭配前波本桶增添香草與焦糖香，保留適度油潤感而不過度過濾。田野與水源：原料使用當地大麥，搭配柔和的斯佩賽泉水，長期的涼爽氣候與精選橡木桶讓酒款口感穩定且餘韻悠長。適合想找成熟果香與溫暖香料感的威士忌愛好者。
Tasting note: Rich and inviting, this 18‑year expression opens with baked orange peel, dried figs and raisin sweetness, layered over honeyed vanilla, toffee and gentle cinnamon spice. Midpalate shows warm caramel, soft oak spice and a suggestion of ginger; the texture is silky with a rounded, mature core. Producer notes: From The Glenrothes, a long‑established Speyside distillery known for vintage-focused single malts, this bottling reflects careful vatting of older casks to achieve balance and complexity. Winemaking (maturation) notes: Matured predominantly in sherry-seasoned oak with complementary ex-bourbon casks, the whisky displays concentrated dried fruit and nutmeg from the sherry influence while bourbon casks give vanilla and caramel lift. No chill-filtration preserves mouthfeel. Vineyard (terroir) notes: Made from 100% malted barley grown in nearby Scottish fields and distilled with soft Speyside spring water; the cool, long maturation climate of Speyside and careful cask selection produce elegant, layered flavours and a long, warming finish.
