Tasting Notes

NOSE: Opens clean & fresh – carrying a fruity, sweet, candy quality plus a light honey & vanilla character.

FINISH: Long - now carrying a sweetly gristed character that runs drier & spiced to a more oaky style.

Revisit the “King of the Lowlands” with Rosebank 21 Year Old – 1992 Vintage, Douglas Laing Director’s Cut (Cask #10146).
Distilled four years before Rosebank’s stills fell silent (1996) and filled into a single refill bourbon hogshead, this triple-distilled gem matured quietly for more than two decades before Douglas Laing bottled it—at natural cask strength—in December 2013 for their flagship Director’s Cut line. Un-chill-filtered and natural in colour, only 141 individually numbered bottles preserve Rosebank’s hallmark floral-citrus elegance framed by vanilla cream, orchard fruit and polished oak spice.

Why We Think You’ll Love It

From the closed Rosebank distillery—a rare chance to savour authentic triple-distilled Lowland finesse.
Single refill bourbon hogshead (#10146) infuses creamy vanilla, orchard fruit and gentle oak without masking the spirit’s floral core.
Bottled at natural cask strength (non-chill-filtered, natural colour) for undiluted texture, aroma and vibrancy.
21 years balance youthful citrus brightness with mature oak polish and subtle spice.
Part of Douglas Laing’s acclaimed “Director’s Cut” series—strictly 141 bottles, perfect for collectors and Lowland aficionados alike.

Pour a measure of this distinguished Rosebank and relish an exquisite union of blossom-fresh fruit, creamy vanilla sweetness and time-softened oak—an unforgettable dram that keeps a lost distillery’s spirit alive in every sip.

The Distillery

Founded in 1840 by James Rankine, the renowned Rosebank Distillery was strategically established in Falkirk at the junction of the Forth and Clyde Canal and the Union Canal, enhancing its distribution capabilities. Originally equipped with three copper stills and round wooden worm tubs, Rosebank specialized in producing triple distilled malt whisky, embodying the distinctive character of Lowland whisky. Historical records indicate that a Rosebank distillery existed as early as 1798, and from 1817 to 1819, James Robertson operated a Rosebank Distillery in Stirlingshire, though its exact location remains unclear. Rosebank continued to flourish until its closure in 1993, after which many of its historic buildings were demolished, rendering it a lost Lowland malt whisky distillery. However, the legacy of Rosebank is set to be revived with its reopening in June 2024, promising to restore its esteemed reputation and offer whisky enthusiasts a resurgence of its traditional craftsmanship and exceptional triple distilled malt whisky. This revival marks a significant milestone in preserving Scotland’s rich whisky heritage, ensuring that Rosebank Distillery remains a celebrated name among whisky connoisseurs and collectors worldwide.
