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.
