Tasting Notes
Colour
Golden amber with coppery undertones and a honeyed, sunlit glow.
Nose
Delicate yet generous, the aroma unfolds with honeyed vanilla over bright orchard fruit—pear and green apple—kissed by a soft sherry sweetness. Dried apricot and raisin mingle with toasted almond, cacao nibs, and a hint of orange zest. Subtle oak and a whisper of spice lend elegance, revealing a mellow, approachable Highland perfume that promises easy-drinking pleasure.
Palate
Silky and mellow, this Glenturret coats the palate with gentle sweetness and understated fruit. Toasted almond, fig and raisin mingle with creamy vanilla and toffee, while light oak and a hint of spice keep it balanced. A soft sherry influence lends depth without harshness, finishing smooth, warm, and beguilingly easy to sip.
Finish
Silky and refined, the finish releases a gentle sherry sweetness—raisins, fig and almond—layered over warm toasted oak. Subtle spice lingers in a soft, long finale, inviting the next elegant sip.
