Tasting Notes:
Old gold in colour. The lingering late summer scent of fruit orchards, laden with cherries and plums and hedgerow blackberries, is melded with lavish chocolate and coffee tones followed by the sudden, icy clarity of fresh wild mint.
A splash of water takes you into shady woods where the heady aroma of dark, syrup forest fruits including blackberries, redcurrants and bramble jelly linger, then give way to the aroma of sweet marzipan, tropical coconut and cinnamon-spiced orchard fruits.
Big and full-flavoured, the effect is mouth-watering, chewy and then lightly mouth-coating.
The initial explosion of sweet and bosky redcurrant and blackberry forest fruits bursts onto the tongue to be replaced by the sugary spiciness of mint humbugs that cools the sides of the palate. Then a clear and enlivening herbal flavour of aniseed sprinkled with cinnamon emerges, leaving the mouth tingling with effervescence, only to be sated by background flavours of bramble and warming spiciness.
The finish has intense warmth, heady with brambles and spices that melts softly away.
ABV: 43%
Background Information:
In 1843 William Matheson granted a licence to distil and the Glenmorangie Distillery Company was established. Beautifully seductive and deliciously captivating, Glenmorangie single malt Scotch whisky is an irresistible feast of taste, texture and aroma.
At the core of the distillery is a small group of men, with immense skill and enviable knowledge; The Sixteen Men of Tain still follow the mystical art of turning barley and mineral-rich, Tarlogie spring water into the famously complex and elegant whisky.
An extremely rare and delectable single malt of notable age and intense, full-bodied flavour. A voluptuous mouth-watering single malt whisky for the luxury spirits drinker.
