A Whisky Few Will Ever Own ‘The Glenturret Deux Terrains 21 Years Old’ – Scotch Whisky News

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.

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.

Stannergill Distillery Private Casks! – Scotch Whisky News

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.

The Isle of Harris Distillery Single Malt at The Whisky Shop – Scotch Whisky News

The Isle of Harris Distillery Single Malt

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.

 

Fragrant Drops North British Fragrant Drops Single Grain Scotch Whisky – Hard To Find Whisky News

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.

£79.95

Colour Luxuriously warm amber-gold with coppery undertones.

Nose An ethereal bouquet of white florals—orange blossom, honeysuckle—with pear and lemon zest. Silky vanilla, almond paste and a drizzle of honey ride atop gentle grain sweetness, while a whisper of oak lends quiet warmth. Delicate, refined and inviting, it hints at years of grace.

Palate Silky and mouth-coating, it unravels with honeyed vanilla, rich toffee, and creamy custard. Pear and golden apple weave through a smooth, pastry-sweet center, while hints of citrus zest keep it bright. Subtle spice—white pepper and a touch of cinnamon—nudges the mid-palate. The finish extends gracefully, with toasted almond, waxy oak, and a persistent, refined sweetness that lingers beautifully.

Finish Perfumed, enduring finish with graceful sweetness and quiet spice. A long, satin tail lingers with vanilla, honey, dried orchard fruit and citrus zest, entwined with almond. Subtle waxy richness and cedar-tinged oak drift in, fading to a refined, perfumed whisper.

ARBIKIE UNVEILS FIRST-EVER SINGLE ESTATE SINGLE MALT SCOTCH WHISKY – Scotch Whisky News

ARBIKIE UNVEILS FIRST-EVER SINGLE ESTATE SINGLE MALT SCOTCH WHISKY

The Signature becomes the inaugural release in Arbikie’s much-anticipated single malt programme, marking a defining milestone for the independent Scottish farm distillery.

ANGUS, SCOTLAND – September 2026: Arbikie Highland Estate Distillery, the independent Scottish farm distillery, has launched The Signature, its first-ever Single Estate Single Malt Scotch Whisky.

The release marks a defining moment for the family-owned business and for the small team behind it, bringing together more than a decade of whisky making and four centuries of family farming. Launching on the 7th September 2026, the anniversary of Arbikie’s first ever cask being filled, The Signature lays the foundation for the distillery’s next chapter as the inaugural expression in its long-term single malt programme.

Produced from Odyssey barley grown on the Arbikie Estate in Angus, The Signature was grown, distilled, matured and bottled entirely on the family-owned farm. Matured for ten years in six bourbon casks and bottled at 48% ABV, only 1,000 bottles have been released worldwide, priced at £250 each.

Every stage of production took place on the Arbikie Estate, from barley grown in the family’s coastal fields to cask maturation in the estate’s former dairy warehouses. The result is a single malt shaped entirely by one place and by the people who know it best. The Signature opens with aromas of ripe peach, banana bread and lemon sherbet, leading to notes of brioche, apricot marmalade and citrus, before a finish of creamy vanilla, orange blossom and lingering spice.

“The Signature represents everything our team has been working towards since we filled our first casks ten years ago,” said Iain Stirling, Co-Founder of Arbikie Highland Estate Distillery. “It is our first Single Estate Single Malt Scotch Whisky, but more importantly it demonstrates what can be achieved when every decision, from the barley we grow to the casks we fill, happens on the same estate.

“We have never been interested in releasing a single malt simply because the market expected it. We wanted our first whisky to reflect our farm, our family, our philosophy and the dedication of everyone who has helped nurture it from field to bottle. After ten years of patience, we believe The Signature does exactly that.”

The launch builds on Arbikie’s growing international reputation for premium spirits, sustainability and single-estate distilling. The family-owned distillery is a certified B Corp and was named global Sustainable Distillery of the Year at the Icons of Whisky 2026.

The Signature marks the beginning of Arbikie’s Single Estate Single Malt collection, with future releases planned to explore the whisky’s evolution through age, cask character and the distillery’s field-to-bottle approach. Further details on forthcoming limited releases will be announced separately.

The Signature is available from the 7th September 2026 at www.thearbikie.com and through Arbikie’s worldwide trade partners.

The Whisky Shop ‘Glengoyne Meets Scottish Oak’ – Scotch Whisky News

Scottish oak and Glengoyne is the perfect match, let us tell you why

Known for their rounded, balanced and naturally fruity character – Glengoyne whisky provides a perfect canvas for Scottish oak which enhances and refines the spirit bringing a drier edge to the signature fruity liquid.  This 17 year old from Glengoyne is the fourth in their acclaimed Oak Masters’ Series, where they explore the world for outstanding virgin oak casks, and for this expression they haven’t had to look very far! The Scottish oak used in the maturation process was sustainably grown and harvested in Killearn, only 5 miles from the distillery – the rare wood is rich in natural tannin and provides structure to the whisky.

Any avid whisky drinkers will be used to seeing whisky matured in American or European wood casks, but maturing in Scottish oak is rare! Our trees grow slowly and with lots of twists, making them tough to turn into casks – but Glengoyne have persevered. Harnessing the natural resources Scotland has to offer, making this release all the more special. On the nose, you’ll find aromas of heather honey, stewed pear and oaty porridge. This opens into a full and beautifully balanced palate, with notes of toasted oak and fresh fruit, followed by a warming spice of ginger and nutmeg. The finish is long, gentle and nutty, with delicate tannins coming through alongside a lingering sweetness and subtle spice.
