Description
Glenglassaugh Torfa with its peaty, phenolic nature, is a unique expression, and is quite different to the usual style of whisky produced in the Highlands. Torfa, referring to the old Norse word for peat, is a brooding, edgy character, whose personality is to be found at the darker end of the spectrum.
Tasting Notes
| Nose |
| Distillery: Vivid, sweet, sooty campfire smoke and sea air infuses zest of lime, apricot jam and ripe soft fruits; all gently warmed by hints of stem ginger and cracked black pepper. |
| Taste |
| Distillery: An eloquent, sweet coastal peat smoke engulfs candied peel over melon, pineapple and roasted red apples. Oat biscuits, hints of heather honey and a gentle cigar box spice all combine to give a terrific balance to the expressive smoky character. |
| Finish |
| Distillery: A heady, yet elegant harmony of distinct coastal peat and striking spiced fruit flavours. |
