Glen Turner Heritage Double Cask Port Cask /carton/ 40% / 0.7l

The Glen Turner brand, which represents single malt and blended malt, is owned by the French company La Martiniquaise.

The latter was founded in 1934 and initially imported rums. After World War II, it was time for cognacs, calvados and whiskeys. In 2008, the company bought Glen Moray Distillery, which had been supplying malt distillate for its popular Label 5 blend for years. Needless to say, Glen Moray is also behind the Glen Turner brand. The Heritage Double Cask version presented here contains whiskey aged in bourbon barrels, finished in port barrels and bottled without specifying the age at 40%.

Aroma: malty, slightly alcoholic, caramel, toffee, sweet cereals, red currants, plums, a bit of hay and light nutty notes.

Taste: sweet, caramel, vanilla, toffee, raisins, cranberries for meat, red currants, a pinch of cinnamon, lemongrass and oak.
