Bottle #ローズバンク(ROSEBANK)
As expected, this was a graceful Rosebank. Rosebank ROSEBANK 1990 15yo Royal Mile Whiskies 46% one of 304 bottles The aroma is elegant, with green apple, lemon, vanilla, floral white flowers, light honey, and a moderate grainy note. Upon drinking, it has a soft mouthfeel with citrus, honey, and its sweetness, with body and a clean finish. [Good/Very Good] This Rosebank 1990, aged for 15 years, is directed to Royal Mile Whiskies, a whisky shop located in Edinburgh. I remember that this vintage of Rosebank was released quite often by various bottlers even after its closure, but in recent years it has completely disappeared. The aroma gives a bourbon cask-like elegant impression, with clear notes of citrus such as green apple and lemon, vanilla, and a floral scent reminiscent of white flowers. When tasted, it also has a rich sweetness with citrus and honey notes, making it delicious. I think that among similar specifications I have tasted before, there were quite a few of this type. This was a good starter for the day.
