TheWhiskeyRecord - Annual Whiskey Awards 2020 - Best Scottish Single Malt
The Glenturret 12 Year Old 2020
We are delighted to announce the Glenturret 12 Year Old
2020 Maiden Release as TheWhiskeyRecord Best Scottish Single Malt of 2020.
The Glenturret Distillery is Scotland’s oldest working distiller and the traditional handmade distilling processes that have been used to craft the whiskies at The Glenturret Distillery for generation are producing better whiskey than ever before.
The 12 Year Old 2002 Maiden Release has been aged in European oak casks. We tasted it using our Elite Sipper glass. It has produced a tropical, fruity wonder with a balanced and extended finish.
