Crafted in collaboration with The Glenturret’s Whisky Maker, Bob Dalgarno, this exclusive release captures the essence of Perthshire, resonating with the vibrant energy and natural beauty of the region. Its inviting bouquet unfolds with notes of warm ginger and cinnamon, evoking a sense of warmth and spice, complemented by a medley of sun-ripened summer fruits and caramelised sugar interlaced with luscious, dried fruits—sultanas, dates, and figs. Layers of ripe red berries burst forth, reminiscent of a summer harvest, mingling with velvety vanilla ice cream that offers a luxurious sweetness. Meanwhile, aged, burnished oak adds profound depth and complexity, whispering tales of centuries past and inviting the drinker on a sensory journey through Highland landscapes and timeless traditions.
