The Glenturret Triple Wood

Description

The Glenturret Triple Wood showcases the craftsmanship of Scotland’s oldest working distillery through a carefully balanced triple cask maturation. This Highland single malt is matured in a combination of American oak casks, European oak casks and sherry-seasoned oak, each contributing its own character to the final whisky.

Bottled at 45% ABV, this expression offers enhanced texture and flavour intensity while remaining smooth and approachable. The Glenturret’s naturally weighty spirit forms the backbone, allowing oak-driven sweetness, spice and fruit to develop in harmony rather than dominance.

Character & Style

The Glenturret Triple Wood is a whisky built on balance and structure rather than extremes. The American oak brings sweetness and vanilla, the European oak adds spice and depth, while the sherry-seasoned casks introduce richness and dried fruit complexity. The result is a classic yet contemporary Highland single malt that appeals to both seasoned whisky drinkers and those exploring premium Scotch.

Best enjoyed neat or with a few drops of water to open up the layered oak influence.
