The previously almost unknown Ruadh Maor is a name that has begun cropping up with a welcome increasing frequency of late, given that it's the moniker given to peated single malt whisky from Glenturret distillery, formerly the home of Famous Grouse under previous owners Edrington.
We don't know much about Ruadh Maor other than it was apparently first made in 2009 for the not-particularly-successful Black Grouse, and that it's supposedly rather heavily-peated (80-120ppm).
Anyway, our buyer Tim R is a big fan and has always got his beady eye out for Ruadh Maor, so he was delighted with this Carn Mor Strictly Limited edition - an 8-year-old from the 2012 vintage bottled from refill sherry hogsheads (yummy) at a heart-warming 47.5%. Timmy R has high hopes for this one, and it looks very reasonably priced.

2 bottles of this lovely single malt were bought as gifts. Sampled a couple of drams from one bottle and it went well above expectations. The quality, integrity, natural colour, cask strength ABV and value-for-money made these bottles 'no-brainers'.
Present us with more of these quality bottles at fair prices...and we'll buy more.
This is a heavily sherried dram that tastes of dates and raisins with a touch of honey and vanilla. It’s pretty soft and smooth without water but a few drops seem to thicken it up slightly and add hints of caramel. Absolutely gorgeous.
