✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Hailing from the legendary Glenmorangie Distillery in Tain, located in the rugged Highlands of Scotland, 'A Midwinter Night's Dram' is a testament to the art of wood finishing pioneered by Dr. Bill Lumsden. Crafted to capture the cozy warmth of the winter solstice, this single malt is first matured in select American white oak ex-bourbon casks before being finished in rich Spanish Oloroso sherry casks. Glenmorangie's signature copper stills—the tallest in Scotland, reaching the height of an adult giraffe—ensure only the lightest, purest vapors ascend to create an elegant spirit. This delicate base is beautifully transformed by the sherry casks, weaving together historical Highland distilling heritage with festive, warming notes of orange peel, ginger, cocoa, and sweet spices.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Glenmorangie blev grundlagt i 1843 af William Matheson ved de fredfyldte bredder ved Dornoch Firth nær Tain i det skotske højland, og destilleriet er i dag verdensberømt som en pioner inden for Highland single malt whisky. Destilleriet er særligt kendt for at have Skotlands højeste svanehalsede kobberkedler, hvor kun de letteste og reneste dampe slipper igennem, hvilket resulterer i et enestående elegant og floralt rådestillat. Med mineralrigt kildevand fra de fredede Tarlogie Springs og førsteklasses skotsk byg har Glenmorangie – i dag under Moët Hennessys lederskab – længe været førende inden for banebrydende fadlagring og skræddersyet efterlagring på udvalgte fade. Deres alsidige portefølje spænder fra den klassiske signaturwhisky 'The Original' med sine klare citrus- og vaniljenoter til komplekse nyskabelser som den chokolademaltede Signet samt sjældne, eftertragtede vintage-aftapninger.
