Distiller Notes
The Glenturret 30 Year Single Malt Scotch Whiskey is derived from a selection of the rarest casks found in their traditional Dunnage Warehouses. A Niepoort Portuguese oak cask drives the tropical flavors found in this single malt. This incredible cask is over one hundred years old and the dark port which it once held has developed a mesmerizing warm ruby hue visible in this extraordinary whisky.
European oak sherry and Moscatel casks further enhance the whisky’s abundant rich characteristics whilst refill casks allow an array of fruit to make several welcome appearances.
Notes of tropical fruit salad, pineapple, mango and banana melting in brown sugar sweetness with hints of coffee and dark chocolate.
“A good gulp of hot Scotch Whisky at bedtime–it’s not very scientific, but it helps!”
Alexander Fleming, Scottish inventor of penicillin, prescribed it as a cure for the common cold. Today Single Malt Scotch Whiskies are prized by enthusiasts and aficionados the world over for their rarity, age and complexity. By definition these must be produced in Scotland from a single distillery and made entirely from malted barley, using a pot still. The appearance, aroma and flavor of a Single Malt Scotch Whisky can vary widely depending on whether it was produced in the Highlands, Lowlands Islands, Speyside, Islay or Campbelltown regions.
