Distilled on June 5, 1995, this single malt spent a total of 31 years in a first-fill Pedro Ximénez sherry hogshead. Having previously held intensely sweet PX sherry only once, the cask was able to impart immense aromatic depth to the spirit before being bottled—unfiltered and with natural color—by independent bottler Best Dram on July 17, 2026.

On the nose, an opulent bouquet of raisins, ripe plums, and dark syrup unfolds, accompanied by subtle notes of vanilla and caramel. On the palate, the whisky impresses with a velvety texture and a full-bodied character, revealing flavors of dried figs, honey, and brown sugar. The long-lasting finish is defined by distinctive oak spice and nuances of dark chocolate, harmoniously rounding off the mature, dry character of this Speyside classic.

The industry legend carefully guarded his Glenrothes 1995/2025 for around 30 years. For the Symington’s Choice series, the first-fill Oloroso sherry butt yielded 499 bottles with magnificent old-school notes of leather, dark chocolate, dates, and nutmeg.

The Speyside distillery has risen like a phoenix from the ashes several times in its 145-year history. So connoisseurs can still enjoy their soft, light and fruity single malt today. For the Seasons Autumn Edition 2022, it was matured for 11 years in oak casks, including a first fill sherry butt finish. The effect: inviting natural brownness and full, strong aromas of dates, honey, coffee and dark chocolate.
