The Glenturret 12 Years Old forms the heart of our annual release. This complex and alluring single malt showcases the rich character of European oak quietly supported by light, sweet notes of American oak. Oloroso and Pedro Ximenez sherry-seasoned casks purposefully build layers of flavour that announce themselves at every turn. The Glenturret 12 Years Old masterfully nurtures lighter citrus fruit and soft vanilla tones as they navigate a pathway of warming wood spices and toasted oak.
Palate:
DRIED FRUITS show later dressed with soft WOOD SPICES. GINGER, NUTMEG and toasted OAK lead to a warm, lingering finish.
