In order to control the quality and provenance of our oak, we have established our own supply chain to manage this process and ensure that we are building a high level of traceability from forest to filling and beyond.
We have made significant progress in ensuring that our wood is sustainably sourced with 100% of our sherry cask suppliers accredited with FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) and PEFC (Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification) certifications from 2022 onwards.
We work towards preserving the life cycle of our casks by recycling our wood where possible, thus extending the average length of time that a cask can be used, something as whisky distillers we have practiced for many generations.
Our Whisky Maker individually selects and decides which casks will be reused as part of our robust wood policy and the quality assurances and sustainability standards associated with The Glenturret.
We also recognise the value in managing our packaging suppliers to ensure that all of the high-quality elements that surround our whisky are sourced sustainably and where possible created from recycled post-consumer materials.
