✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Hailing from the wind-swept Highlands of Scotland, Glenmorangie's Bond House No. 1 Collection pays homage to the distillery's historic 19th-century warehouse, which was transformed in 1990 into a spectacular stillhouse. This particular expression, bottled in 2018, represents a masterfully aged single malt distilled in the tallest copper pot stills in Scotland—stills as tall as an adult giraffe, which ensure only the purest, most elegant vapors ascend to create the spirit. Nourished by the mineral-rich waters of the Tarlogie Springs and matured in select oak casks, including ex-bourbon, Oloroso sherry, and Burgundy casks, this whisky embodies a rich tapestry of ripe orchard fruits, warm baking spices, and a signature creamy, velvety texture. It stands as a monument to Glenmorangie's pioneering heritage in wood management and slow, patient maturation.
🍾 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.
