Tasting Notes

Without water

Colour: A beautiful rich amber hue.

Nose: Initially enticing aromas of ripe black cherry and marzipan. Giving way to candied fruit and rich, creamy butterscotch undertones

Palate: Warming sherry flavour, with accents of dark toffee and fresh natural vanilla.

Finish: A supremely well-rounded finish with gentle, enduring hints of bitter coffee and muscovado sugar.

With water added

Colour: A gorgeous rich, burnt copper

Nose: The sherry notes now really sing. Fermented sweetness of pineapple and vanilla lead to burnt toffee notes.

Palate: Caramelised crème brulé and panna cotta creaminess, leading to gentler tones of flamed orange peel and spicy clove.

Finish: An exceptionally well-rounded and accomplished finish - the toffee, vanilla and caramel notes linger.

About this single cask Glenrothes

This is a beautifully elegant and well-rounded whisky. It would pair well with a rich apple tartine, or a traditional Swiss cheese, such as Appenzeller Edel-Wurzig.

About Spiritfilled's Mythical Beast, Nyami Nyami

The sparkling blue waters of the mighty Spey wind their way through the idyllic Speyside landscape, their depths home to myriad mysteries and myths. Gliding effortlessly through deep waterways, the River God Nyami Nyami radiates benevolence, using his supernatural powers to provide sustenance for his followers, bestowing wealth and good fortune, and protecting them from dark forces in troubled times. Yet there is a poignancy about his solitude; he searches the rivers endlessly, seeking a reunion with his beloved mate. If thwarted, this powerful beast has only to shake his mighty snake-like tail to send tremors through the earth and waves crashing to the riverbank. Smooth, strong and complex, with a sting in the tail, this mythical beast leaves a lasting impression.

Meet The Founders

Russell Spratley and Ross Archer

Spiritfilled was founded by two entrepreneurial best friends, who both love whisky. Russell and Ross stared Spiritfilled as cask broker, helping clients around the world to buy and sell quality whisky casks.

As they explored the warehouses of Scotland, Russell and Ross would discover certain casks they'd fall in love with. They couldn't part ways with these super special casks, and so decided to bottle these themselves. Mythical Beasts is their independent bottler label, under which they release their single cask whiskies.
