Tasting Notes
Nose |
HL: This whisky is wonderfully complex on the nose with sweet, fruity notes such as toffee apples combining with strong confectionery elements including milk chocolate & caramel along with toffee popcorn & even some orange peel. The nose develops with hints of tropical flowers & fragrant woody notes including sandalwood & furniture polish. With the addition of some water it then becomes a little briny & musty. |
Taste |
HL: On the palate, this Glenturret remains sweet with sherbet, some gentle spice and toffee notes. The caramel and golden syrup notes carry across from the nose to the palate and combine with an appealing vanilla sweetness. |
Finish |
HL: The finish is medium to long, with caramel and ginger spice lingering on the palate. |
