✨ wine.spec_sheet
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.
