A rather fruity and touch waxy expression, lovely tropicality on the palate give away the age here. 88/100
Sweet and medicinal but I can’t get that germolene in my mouth feeling away, nice but a little sickly. 84/100
A traditional Speysider, fruity with obvious influence of oak wood, well developed, zesty, cooked and preserved apples in this one. 85/100
A delicious combination of sweet milk, vanilla buttercream icing and earthy and turfy peat smoke. 87/100

Rich, complex and nutty a fantastic example of how peat and sherry really work well together. 89/100
I found this a little challenging on the nose with dry leather and woody tannins initially but once it has breathed a fairly classic Dundee cake/Fruit cake nature arises from the ex-European oak cask maturation. 84/100
A Highland peaty expression that combines thick peat smoke influences with Glenturret’s fruity spirit profile. 84/100
A beautiful expression, quite complex but very drinkable. Lots going on in here but all very complementary the result is Baklava, buttery pastry, honey/syrup, nuts and gentle spices combined to perfection. 85/100
