Ruadh Maor (Glenturret) 12 Years Old

Big, bold and hugely enjoyable the first Glenturret selected by the Thompson Bros, they chose a Raudh Maor, the peated variant from the Distillery near Crieff.  The label pays respect to Towser (1963 – 1987), the greatest mouser to ever live, killing an estimated 28,899 mice at Glenturret Distillery.

TASTING NOTES

NOSE

Chimney smoke and buttery smoked whitefish, lemonade, smoked bacon, iodine, salty brine and some yellow fruit poking its head up.

PALATE

Deep mouthfeel with plenty of maritime notes, old rope, lobster boxes, rockpools and some more citrus notes, verging towards grapefruit.

FINISH

Lasting peat and wood smoke with a touch of herbaceousness.
