  • 20 Years Old (official notes): pineapple and mango on the nose, with wood spices and ginger. Palate shows tropical fruits and sweet spices leading to a subtle fruity finish.

  • For rarity and potential collectibility: the 25YO (210 bottles) and 30YO (75 bottles) are far more limited and carry higher price points.

# Closing note

These three releases sit alongside The Glenturret's Core Release range and reflect the distillery's focus on aged single malts and small, tightly constrained annual offerings.
