About this deal

Maybe it’s the balanced use of all their core cask types. Maybe it’s the perfectly balanced oak notes that come with 20+ years of maturation. Maybe they seriously take their time in selecting the best honey barrels. Maybe it’s all of these factors and more. Price estimate statistics ---- Glenmorangie 12 years Of. The Lasanta Finished in Oloroso & PX Sherry Casks ----

Nowadays, Glenmorangie is one of the bestselling whiskies in Scotland and has been since 1983. It produces about 10 million bottles per year, 60% of which is sold within the United Kingdom. To say a glass of Glenmorangie 25 Years Old is effortless to enjoy is something of an understatement. The dram radiates charm. However, even a few more percentage points of spirit would have added some personality and, dare I say, feistiness? Glenmorangie distillery (pronounced with the stress on the second syllable: listen ⓘ; the toponym is believed to derive from either Gaelic Gleann Mòr na Sìth " vale of tranquillity" or Gleann Mór-innse " vale of big meadows") [3] is a distillery in Tain, Ross-shire, Scotland, that produces single malt Scotch whisky. I was surprised by how short the finish was, especially compared to the Grand Vintage 1990. I was also surprised by how light it came through in total. With something holding this age I was expecting something with a bit more gravitas. The 25 Year Old benefits from being matured in a number of different casks before being blended exactly together in the right proportions. The casks used to create the rich flavour include Oloroso sherry casks, French Burgundy casks and American White Oak casks. Nose

But the ‘80s and ‘90s saw a gradual move away from blends to concentrate on single malts. For many years, the 10 Year Old expression was the only one bottled by the distillery but in 1987 Glenmorangie released a 1963 vintage single malt which was finished in oloroso sherry casks. This was followed in the early ‘90s by a Port cask-finished whisky and then a plethora of other cask finishes like Madeira, sherry and Sauternes. The switch to single malts was completed in 2014 when the Bailie Nicol Jarvie was discontinued. Glenmorangie Quarter Century wins Best Highland Single Malt award".

Price estimate statistics ---- Glenmorangie 12 years Of. Château De Meursault Wood Finish Non Chill-Filtered ---- The Glenmorangie Distillery in the Royal Burgh of Tain, situated in Scotland’s Northern Highlands, produces this much loved single malt. Renowned for its delicate complexity, Glenmorangie is also famous for its pioneering use of wood finishes. Wood finishing is the term used to describe the process whereby whisky that has first been matured in ‘traditional’ casks - that is to say ex-Bourbon barrels or ex-sherry casks - is then transferred to a different type of barrel that has usually held another alcoholic liquid, whether a wine or another spirit.

There is a surprisingly weak oaken presence in this whisky, especially on the nose and palate. But that does not make it any less enjoyable, unless a woody bitterness is required to round off such a sweet overall constitution. Conclusion:

For the record, we’re talking pre-1990. Oh bother, now I’m feeling nostalgic and it’s all the fault of Glenmorangie’s Quarter Cask.
