Tasting Notes
From the distillery: Smoke drifts in, fruits appear, pleasant and warming. Candy sweetness lingers and soft, mellow peat finishes.
Method
Aged for seven years in American Oak Sherry seasoned casks, this bottling is the Glenturret’s newest addition to their core range with 2022 being it’s maiden release.
Our Thoughts
Nose: I can’t get enough of those sugar crisps, does anyone remember that cereal? Post Sugar Crisps? Because I certainly didn’t until I smelled this Scotch and then it all came rushing back to me. We’ve got some salted caramel, vanilla, leather and horse as well.
Palate: Balanced peat smoke, right from start to finish. Toffee, vanilla. Very bright and fresh.
Finish: Tangy orange, cinnamon and clove on the lovely finish.
