Glen Moray Peated Single Malt

Glen Moray Peated Single Malt is a NAS peated expression from the Elgin-based Speyside distillery — an unusual departure from Glen Moray’s standard unpeated bourbon-oak house style, using peated malt to add smoke to the distillery’s characteristically fruit-forward and accessible Speyside character.

Glen Moray is primarily known for its unpeated, bourbon-oak-led Speyside expressions in the standard range. The Peated Single Malt explores what the distillery’s spirit looks like with peat smoke added — the combination of Glen Moray’s fruit and vanilla base with peated malt’s smoke producing a distinctly different character from the core range.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Glen Moray Peated heavily smoked?

Moderately peated rather than heavily — Glen Moray’s peated expression uses enough peat to add a clearly smoky character without the intensity of Islay heavily peated single malts. A good option for drinkers curious about peated Speyside without committing to full Islay intensity.

How does Glen Moray Peated compare to the standard range?

The smoke adds a layer over Glen Moray’s standard fruit-forward, bourbon-oak character — the vanilla and caramel remain present but with a smoky complexity added. Quite different from the unpeated 12 and 15 Year expressions.
