Rosebank 21, 1992-2014, 55.3%

Posted on 29 July 2021 by Sjoerd de Haan-Kramer

Rosebank… One of the first closed distilleries I tried, and one I didn’t buy enough of in the past. It’s become such a rarity now, even more so because the quality is quite patchy. Official bottlings and most things released … Continue reading →

The Return of the Queen

Posted on 22 September 2018 by Sjoerd de Haan-Kramer

I like this guest-post thing, so when Tom van Engelen asked me if he could write one about Rosebank, one of his (and mine) favorite distilleries, I didn’t have to think about it for long! Read on! A whisky … Continue reading →

Rosebank 1990-2010, 59.3% – SMWS (25.57)

Posted on 12 February 2016 by Sjoerd de Haan-Kramer

Strangely, there is barely any information on this bottling on the internet. As in, none. I do get some Asian search results, but as you might expect I can’t really work with that. Anyway, we had this sample as the … Continue reading →

Rosebank 1975-2005, 30yo, 54.8% – Silver Seal, Sestante Collection

Posted on 8 September 2015 by Sjoerd de Haan-Kramer

Ever since I tried a 12 year old Rosebank Flora & Fauna some ten years ago this Lowlands distillery has been a favorite of mine. I think it’s a shame it’s gone and there is no other distillery that comes … Continue reading →

Rosebank 25, 1981-2007, 61.4%. Part 3

Posted on 16 August 2014 by Sjoerd de Haan-Kramer

Where is part two you might ask. Well, I kind of screwed up on my last post about the Rosebank 25. Apparently I had already reviewed it almost four years ago when I just opened it. I forgot, I didn’t … Continue reading →

Rosebank 25, 1981-2007, 61.4%

Posted on 15 August 2014 by Sjoerd de Haan-Kramer

Rosebank has a tendency to be ridiculously strong, even at higher ages. I know this is partially due to the triple distillation, but also the fill level must have been ridiculously high to be at 61.4% after 25 years. The … Continue reading →

4 Rosebanks in a row

Posted on 27 April 2014 by Sjoerd de Haan-Kramer

I almost wrote Four Roses, but that would be rather misleading. Especially for a post like this. Probably the most Serge Valentin-esque post I’m ever going to do with four rather different whiskies from one distillery. I was not able … Continue reading →

Een nieuwe Lowlands distilleerderij?

Posted on 17 September 2010 by Sjoerd de Haan-Kramer

Ongeveer twee jaar geleden kwam er ineens een nieuwtje uit Schotland dat in Falkirk plannen waren geopperd om een nieuwe distilleerderij te bouwen. Omdat Rosebank daar gestaan heeft werd al snel gepraat over Rosebank 2.0. Aanvankelijk was er nog even … Continue reading →
