To commemorate this occasion, The Glenturret has released a limited edition single malt that encapsulates the spirit of innovation and excellence that both brands embody.
On the 22nd of February, 2024, Crieff became the epicentre of celebration as The Glenturret announced the launch of this exclusive whisky, limited to just 220 bottles.
