Glenturret 10 Year Peat Smoked Single Malt Scotch

Glenturret 10 Year Peat Smoked is a Highland single malt from Scotland’s oldest working distillery — The Glenturret in Crieff, Perthshire, which has been producing whisky since 1763 — and the peated expression from a distillery better known for its unpeated house style and its association with The Famous Grouse.

Glenturret is one of the smallest and most traditional distilleries in Scotland, operating with a single pair of pot stills and doing much of its production by hand. The Peat Smoked 10 Year uses peated malt to add smoke alongside the distillery’s characteristic fruit and floral character — a deliberate contrast to the standard unpeated Glenturret range.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is Glenturret producing a peated expression?

The new ownership (Lalique Group, from 2019) has expanded the Glenturret range beyond the standard unpeated house style to include peated expressions that showcase the distillery’s character with smoke — a deliberate diversification of what was previously a single-style operation.

Is Glenturret really the oldest working distillery in Scotland?

The claim to 1763 is contested — several distilleries make similar historical claims. What is confirmed is that Glenturret has documented continuous operation at the Crieff site since at least the early 19th century, making it among the oldest continuously operating distilleries in Scotland regardless of the exact founding date.
