The Glenturret x International Women’s Day Whisky Feature
The Glenturret x International Women’s Day: Philip Day provides details of a bottle of The Glenturret 12-Year-Old 2023 release with a one-of-a-kind label. This unique lot will be auctioned off by Whisky Auctioneer next month with proceeds benefiting The Prince’s Trust: Women Supporting Women initiative.
The Glenturret, the oldest working distillery in Scotland
As the oldest working distillery in Scotland, with a rich history dating back to 1763, The Glenturret has been privileged to employ many exceptional women over the years. Today, the distillery proudly boasts a team of 33 talented and dedicated female staff members across various departments, from production to the Michelin-starred kitchen, visitor centre, marketing department, and office team. Together, these remarkable women comprise approximately 50% of the driving force behind The Glenturret’s portfolio.
A collaboration with Amy Jacobs
To commemorate this year’s International Women’s Day, celebrated on the 8th March 2024, The Glenturret has undertaken a special initiative. Collaborating with Edinburgh-based Graphic Designer Amy Jacobs, the brand has created a bespoke, one-off whisky label featuring the names of all 33 female employees.
Proceeds will benefit The Prince’s Trust: Women Supporting Women initiative
This label will adorn a bottle of The Glenturret 12-Year-Old 2023 release, which will be auctioned off by Whisky Auctioneer in April, with proceeds benefiting The Prince’s Trust: Women Supporting Women initiative.
Established in 2018, Women Supporting Women at The Prince’s Trust aims to empower young women facing disadvantage and adversity, helping them to transform their lives through confidence-building support, job opportunities, education, and training.
