Glenturret have since changed over their core lineup, I look forward to reviewing one of them soon!
Glenturret 10 Years Old / 40%
Tasted neat
There is very little here on this bottle besides “Glenturret 10 Years Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky”, aside from the following marketing statements:
- Scotland’s Oldest Working Distillery
- By Hand and by Heart
- Product of Scotland
- Small Batch
Let’s see how it tastes!
- Color: russet (e150a)
- Nose: ethanol, green apple, some stewed plum; honey, nail polish
- Taste: light and floral; pastry crust, osmanthus, vanilla, and jasmine
- Finish: long, some honey, cut grass; and ginger
The nose has a few off notes, but is not largely unpleasant; on tasting it is well-bodied and somewhat oily, with a light and floral character. Compared the “Sherry cask” batches that came out previously that I tried, this is a very respectable Highland malt and they’re really turning quality around!
Rating: 5/10
