Glenmorangie Description
Light russet color. Warm spice aromas mix with aromas of smooth chocolate covered raisins, honeycomb and caramel toffee. On the palate, deliciously sweet sherry flavored sultanas, orange segments, walnuts and butterscotch combine to create complex warm spices. Long and satisfying finish with spiced orange and chocolate covered hazelnuts.
This signature expression is first aged in American oak ex-bourbon casks for smoothness. Glenmorangie then finishes this single malt whisky in hand-selected Oloroso and Pedro Ximenez sherry casks. Sourced from Jerez in Spain, the sherry casks bring rich raisin intensity, toffee and spices to Glenmorangie's renowned smooth style, enjoyed and awarded across the world.
Wine Enthusiast: 93 Points
Aged in Bourbon casks for 10 years, then “extra matured” for two years in Oloroso Sherry casks. The result is luxe and rich, a fine after-dinner sipper. Allow a little time for the aroma to emerge, and a splash of water for maximum flavor. The reward is a thick caramel aroma and flavor, with mouthwatering spicy notes of clove, cassia bark and a hint of orange peel.
