Meikle Tòir The Turbo 2023 Edition 5 year old, 50%

Price: 75 Issue: Spring 2024 Reviewer: Jonny McCormick Category: Single Malt Scotch

Delicious, punchy, and complex, The Turbo is made from malt peated to 71 ppm and the spirit is cut from the still when the vapors have the highest phenol content. The nose is redolent of crème caramel, thick smoke, candied chestnut, fruit teas, worn leather, forest honey, and smoked orange peel. Baked orange, cough syrup, and currants reach the taste buds with blooms of peat smoke, Horlicks, milk chocolate, roasted spices, and vanilla latte.
