Glenglassaugh Torfa Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky - 700ml







At Glenglassaugh, in addition to the traditional production, they also produce a very limited quantity of whisky using richly peated malted barley.
The malted barley has been dried in the traditional way, over peat infused kilns, giving the whisky its unique smoky flavour.
Glenglassaugh ‘Torfa’, with its peaty, phenolic nature, is a unique expression, and is quite different to the usual style of whisky produced in the Highlands.

Tasting Notes
Nose
Vivid, sweet, sooty campfire smoke and sea air infuses zest of lime, apricot jam and ripe soft fruits; all gently warmed by hints of stem ginger and cracked black pepper.
Palate
An eloquent, sweet coastal peat smoke engulfs candied peel over melon, pineapple and roasted red apples. Oat biscuits, hints of heather honey and a gentle cigar box spice all combine to give a terrific balance to the expressive smoky character.
Finish
A heady, yet elegant, harmony of distinct coastal peat and striking spiced fruit flavours.
