✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Hailing from the wind-swept Highlands of Scotland, the Glenmorangie Grand Vintage Malt 1990 represents the inaugural release of the prestigious Bond House No. 1 Collection. This exquisite single malt tells the story of a monumental transition in Glenmorangie's history. Distilled in 1990, a year of great change, it captures the final spirits run from the original, historic stillhouse before the transformation of the 19th-century Bond House No. 1 warehouse into the brand's new, state-of-the-art stillhouse—famed for housing Scotland's tallest, giraffe-high stills. Matured for 26 years primarily in select ex-bourbon casks with a small parcel finished in ex-Oloroso sherry casks, this expression offers an extraordinary marriage of creamy vanilla, vibrant citrus, and deep herbal complexity, serving as a liquid monument to the distillery's heritage.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
William Matheson grundlagde Glenmorangie i 1843 ved de fredfyldte bredder af Dornoch Firth i Ross-shire, og destilleriet regnes i dag for et uomgængeligt pejlemærke inden for Highland single malt Scotch whisky. Huset udmærker sig ved Skotlands højeste svanehals-kedler af kobber på over fem meter. Den imponerende højde sikrer en forlænget kobberkontakt og massiv refluks, hvilket skaber et usædvanligt let, floralt og citrusdrevet destillat. Det mineralrige, hårde kildevand fra de historiske Tarlogie Springs er ligeledes med til at definere whiskyens særpræg. Under ledelse af Moët Hennessy og den visionære Dr. Bill Lumsden har Glenmorangie været pionerer inden for fadlagring og sekundær modning på sauternes-, portvins- og sherryfade. Foruden klassiske milepæle som The Original og The Nectar står destilleriet bag højt værdsatte, komplekse kreationer som Signet, Pride og den eksklusive årgangsserie Bond House No. 1 Collection, hvor Highland-elegance og nyskabende fadstyring forenes til fuldkommenhed.
