The Glenturret Deux Terrains 21 Years Old

Whisky Magazine has partnered with The Glenturret to introduce one of the year’s most exclusive whisky releases.

Deux Terrains 21 Years Old is more than an exceptional single malt. It’s a collector’s delight from Scotland’s oldest working distillery, created for those who appreciate genuine rarity and uncompromising craftsmanship.

Matured with the influence of exceptional Sauternes casks, Deux Terrains unites two worlds: the celebrated vineyards of Bordeaux and the whisky-making heritage of the Scottish Highlands. The result is a whisky of remarkable elegance, depth, and complexity.

Only 500 individually hand-numbered bottles have been released worldwide. Once allocated, there will be no further release.

Available exclusively through The Glenturret, this is a rare opportunity to secure one of the distillery’s most limited bottlings.

A Whisky Few Will Ever Own

Tasting Notes by Whisky Magazine

The Glenturret Deux Terrains 21 Years Old

Highland single malt Scotch whisky

42.8% ABV, RRP £750

Nose: The nose opens with a bright, tropical lift, with juicy pineapple and golden melon sitting alongside green apple and fresh croissants. Earthy vanilla pods, red cherry, cinnamon buns, and a touch of oak polish emerge with time.

Palate: Sumptuously creamy with a smattering of ginger, nutmeg and wood spices, the palate brings raspberry, orange peel and decadent milk chocolate notes, lifted by a subtle nuttiness and a crack of black pepper.

Finish: Medium to long, with lingering oak spices, dark chocolate, and dried citrus peels.

 Comments: A remarkably elegant, poised whisky that offers pleasing structure alongside inviting fruit and baking spice notes. One to savour.

A celebration of heritage, craftsmanship, and a deep respect for terroir, The Glenturret Deux Terrains 21 Years Old represents an astonishing new chapter in the history of the distillery.

Introducing Benromach 12 – a brand new flagship expression!

Introducing Benromach 12 – a brand new flagship expression! When we found out Benromach were working on a brand new sherry cask matured 12 year old – the excitement, and anticipation was real! So it’s a real treat to share the good news that a new signature release from sunny Forres has finally arrived at The Whisky Shop! Even better news is its priced at an excellent

£49. 

Benromach distillery has been carefully restored and has revived a lost Speyside whisky style using time-honoured methods. Marking an evolution in maturing stock, the 12 year old from Benromach becomes part of their signature range, this one is here to stay.

Matured in first-fill sherry casks and bottled at a higher strength of 46% abv, this whisky has great depth all while staying true to the distillery’s signature subtly smoky character. Delivering rich fruitcake, vibrant raspberry and orange notes with freshly cracked pepper and a touch of smoke, this whisky is guaranteed to be delicious. Delve deeper into the tasting notes above!

If you have been following us for a while, you will know how much has gone into getting our distillery to this point — two years of construction and a 200-year-old building that demanded nothing but the very best. But once the distillery was built, the next challenge was commissioning our copper pot stills!

Martin, and the team, have worked tirelessly over the past weeks, running through final checks, and making sure every single piece of equipment was performing exactly as it should.

And then — it happened. The first distillations ran at Stannergill Distillery. New make spirit, born in Caithness, made from local barley and pure Highland water. We cannot quite put into words what it felt like to watch that spirit flow for the first time. Years of dreaming, planning, and building — and there it was.

Fancy your own cask?

We are very excited now to be welcoming all of our Cask Owners to come along to fill their cask! If you would like to be part of the excitement with your very own cask then please get in touch for details or find out more on our website.

Loch Lomond Whiskies Raises £14,230 for The R&A Foundation Through Golden Ticket Campaign

Loch Lomond Whiskies, The Spirit of The Open, has raised £14,230 for The R&A Foundation through its Golden Ticket campaign, following a hugely successful activation across The 154th Open and the AIG Women’s Open.

A total of 1,423 Golden Tickets were purchased by golf fans across the two championships, with 100% of the £10 ticket price donated to The R&A Foundation, helping to support its work to deliver positive impact for golf and through golf.

The funds raised will contribute to The R&A Foundation’s work to improve lives and strengthen communities through the game, supporting initiatives that make golf more accessible, improve wellbeing and create opportunities for aspiring talent around the world.

The Golden Ticket activation launched at The 154th Open at Royal Birkdale before continuing at the AIG Women’s Open at Royal Lytham & St Annes, giving spectators the opportunity to support The R&A Foundation while entering a draw to win one of Loch Lomond Whiskies’ rarest releases. Tickets were available exclusively to spectators at the two championships, with all proceeds donated to The R&A Foundation.

Following the conclusion of the campaign, Andrew from Liverpool was selected as the lucky winner, taking home one of only 100 bottles worldwide of Loch Lomond 50-Year-Old single malt whisky, valued at £25,000. With both

championships staged in the North West, it was a fitting end to the campaign to see the prize won by someone from the local region.

The Loch Lomond 50-Year-Old was distilled using Loch Lomond Distillery’s distinctive Straight Neck Stills and matured for half a century. One of just 100 individually numbered bottles released worldwide, it was matured in first-fill Bourbon and Oloroso Sherry casks.

Andrew Jack, Group Marketing Director at Loch Lomond Group, said: “We have been delighted by the response to The Golden Ticket and the generosity shown by golf fans across both The Open and AIG Women’s Open. Selling 1,423 tickets and raising £14,230 for The R&A Foundation is a fantastic result and demonstrates what can be achieved when we bring together our passion for whisky with our long-standing commitment to golf.

“As The Spirit of The Open, we wanted The Golden Ticket to add something special to the spectator experience while making a positive contribution to the future of the game. We’re incredibly proud that the funds raised will support The R&A Foundation’s important work, helping to create opportunities and make a lasting difference through golf.”

The Golden Ticket campaign builds on Loch Lomond Whiskies’ long-standing relationship with golf and its partnership with The R&A, bringing together its whisky-making heritage with its commitment to supporting the game and its communities.

Following the conclusion of the campaign, all entries were uploaded to an independent third-party random draw platform using unique order reference numbers. One winner and five reserve winners were selected using a computer-generated random draw, ensuring the process was fair, transparent and based entirely on chance, with all eligible entries having an equal opportunity to be selected. The selected order reference numbers were then matched to customer records to identify the winner and reserve winners.  

About Loch Lomond Whiskies

Loch Lomond Whiskies is an award-winning, independent Scotch whisky distiller which has been producing the finest single malt whiskies since 1814.  As a Highland malt, it is part of the largest and most diverse whisky-making region in Scotland.

The original site of the Loch Lomond Distillery was established near Tarbert, towards the northwest end of Loch Lomond. In the 1960s, under the leadership of American entrepreneur and chemist, Duncan Scott (who was instrumental in the ongoing success of Scotland’s oldest licensed distillery, Littlemill), a new site was created in Alexandria, which began a move to a more innovative philosophy and style of whisky-making that is still used today.

Located only a few miles from the famous loch, the distillery has a whisky-making capability like no other, using a combination of traditional swan-neck and its signature straight-neck-stills, which are unique to Loch Lomond Whiskies.

The straight-neck stills give Master Blender Michael Henry greater control over the distillation process, allowing him to carefully manipulate the flavour profile of each whisky, and providing a signature fruit, honey and soft smoke flavour profile.

Loch Lomond Whiskies is one of only four distillers in Scotland to have its own onsite cooperage, ensuring that barrel repairs and charring are carried out to an exacting standard, so every cask is perfect for maturing whisky.

The distillery’s multi-award-winning range includes Loch Lomond Original; Loch Lomond 12 Year Old; Loch Lomond 12 Year Old; Loch Lomond Inchmoan 12 Year Old; Loch Lomond Inchmurrin 12 Year Old; Loch Lomond 18 Year Old; Loch Lomond 21 Year Old and Loch Lomond 30 Year Old, as well as Loch Lomond Single Grain (peated and unpeated) and the deluxe blend Loch Lomond Signature.

In 2023, it was recognised as the ‘Most Awarded Distillery’ at the globally renowned San Francisco World Spirits Competition 2023, achieving multiple Double Gold and Gold Awards for its collection of malt whisky brands.

Last year, Loch Lomond 18 Year Old was revealed as The Whisky Exchange’s coveted ‘Whisky of the Year 2024’, achieving superior scores from the judging panel for its full-bodied and fruity character.

Loch Lomond Whiskies was also named among Drinks International’s ‘The World’s Most Admired Whiskies 2025’, where it was noted as one of the most capable distilleries in Scotland.

SECURE YOUR CASK

Glenegedale, Isle of Islay, PA42 7AS

After more than a decade of distilling, the Isle of Harris Distillery has launched a new core expression encapsulating the Island’s Hebridean spirit. The Isle of Harris single malt, priced at £50, is made to be enjoyed by both seasoned whisky drinkers, and those who are entirely new to the whisky world. The malt offers an intentionally approachable flavour profile, encouraging owners to extend some of that island hospitality with your nearest and dearest through sharing a dram, or cocktail*.

Tasting notes from Shona Macleod, distillery blender at Isle of Harris: “On the nose, there is an immediate warmth: butterscotch and iced cherry Bakewell tart, like a pastry shop on a cold morning. As it opens, brighter fruit and delicate floral notes appear, with a gentle hint of spice. The palate brings rich, buttery caramels and sweet cloves and ginger balanced by the dry, flinty character that’s so typical of Isle of Harris spirit. The finish is light and creamy, with a soft echo of Outer Hebridean peat smoke.”

Explore the new single malt
£50

In 2015, the distillery was founded with the overarching aim of providing multi-generational local employment and creating a catalyst for positive change for the island community. Since then, the distillery has produced arguably one of the most recognisable Scottish gins over the last decade, and their more recent Hearach single malt, which has earned over 25 rewards since its initial release.

Every aspect of the distillery’s products are deliberate – from the iconic bottle design inspired by the cross-hatched lines of the island’s famous handwoven Harris Tweed, to the copper flecks in the bottle’s label, a nod to the copper stills used at the distillery. We can guarantee you’ll feel connected to the Outer Hebrides through every drop poured.

North British 33 Year Old

1991 Vintage · 70cl · 41% ABV

This remarkable expression from the North British Distillery was distilled in 1991 and matured for over three decades bourbon oak. Soft yet complex in character, this Scotch is a prime example of what a long aged single grain can achieve; notes of pear and golden apple weave through a smooth, pastry-sweet centre.

Why Does This Whisky Taste Like That?

Peat is responsible for some of Scotch whisky’s most distinctive flavours. But if two whiskies are both heavily peated (Ardbeg 🤝 Laphroaig), how come they can taste completely different? This post explores how peat influences flavour and why peaty whiskies can have remarkably different personalities.

Springbank 12 Cask Strength 56.6% 2026

The REVIEW

There isn’t much else to say, is there. Somehow I was able to get hold of this bottle for the first time in my life. I felt so honoured to have it that it only felt right to share it with other people at a tasting I ran in Manchester, and as you’d expect, it went down a storm. As a believer in the ‘bourbon casks are best’ policy when it comes to ageing spirits, I was so happy that this release was also 100% ex-bourbon cask matured. I wanted to taste that oily, funky, unusual thing that has made Springbank so famous all over the world, whilst getting the nuances of the style, too. No heavy fortified wines or sweet rums clouding that possibility. I love all casks, but this was a special experience. A marvellous whisky with a lot of potent presence and an almost cleansing level of spiciness.
