Situated just down the road from the distillery, the coastal village of Portsoy is the inspiration for this new expression from Glenglassaugh. Taking ex-bourbon, ex-sherry, ex-port matured stocks, this peated whisky marries together the classic sweet and sour tropical fruit (charred mango) character of the distillery with a rich and distinctive savoury seaweed note throughout.

Torfa is the all new peated expression from Portsoy's Glenglassaugh distillery. Sweet fragrant bonfire smoke swirls around delicate fruit sweetness and touches of sea salt, with marzipan (wedding cake icing) and tart redcurrants in the finish. An exceptionally good peaty whisky, it is well suited for those who enjoy malts from some of Scotland's smokier west coast distilleries.

Part of the new lineup of whiskies from the distillery, this 12 year old expression marks a milestone of the distillery since its re-opening in 2008 after lying dormant since 1986. This is the quintessential style of the distillery - lush, sweet tropical fruits melded with a tang of sea-salt from its home maturing by the sea. Matured in ex-bourbon, ex-sherry and ex-red wine casks.

Selected for the 2nd 'Rare Casks' release from Glenglassaugh, this 42 year old single cask was distilled in 1972. Master distiller Billy Walker writes of a classic Glenglassaugh flavours - rich honey infused with allspice, roasted apples, a medley of syrupy fruit (pears, sultanas) and a deliciate, aromatic wood spice. Old whiskies from Glenglassaugh are amongst the very finest whiskies available from the Highland's, and 1972 is a year that exemplifies this style.

Named after the broad, beautiful bay the distillery sits above, this expression forms part of an entirely new lineup of this little-known Highland gem. A buttery vanilla and tropical fruit scented note leads the nose, with white chocolate and a touch of sea-salt. Salted caramel flavours join more fruityness on the palate, with pineapple and a tang of sweet-sour grapefruit.
