HSC The Glenrothes 1996 20 yrs (Life Is A Circus)

"Glenrothes 1996 High Spirits 20 Year Old | Life is a Circus"

"Earmarked from an early stage an ideal component in blended Scotch whiskies, Glenrothes has long been a key part of big brands such as Cutty Sark and Famous Grouse. Its relationship with the former, lead to a three-decade-long association with London wine-merchants, Berry Brothers & Rudd, who first approached Highland Distillers about licensing the Glenrothes single malt brand in 1983, eventually trading the Cutty Sark blend with Edrington for full ownership of it in 2010. The distillery itself remained with Edrington through, and the two were reunited when the now hugely successful brand was returned in 2017. Releases from independent labels like this have also always been highly regarded. This is from an unusual collection of 10 independent bottlings produced by High Spirits. Each bottle is presented with a label depicting circus acts around the world."
