- Description
- Glenturret's 1990 vintage spent 35 years in a refill hogshead before bottling at cask strength, yielding just 231 bottles of this delicate Highland expression. The whisky retains the brightness and structural integrity typical of well-aged spirit matured in inactive wood, with an emphasis on distillery character over oak dominance. The texture is refined and understated, with genuine age showing as complexity rather than heaviness. A traditional-style Scotch for those who value finesse and the pure distillery voice.
