✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Nestled on the shores of the Dornoch Firth in the Scottish Highlands, the Glenmorangie Distillery has been crafting exquisite single malt whisky since 1843. Renowned for possessing the tallest copper pot stills in Scotland—equivalent to the height of an adult giraffe—Glenmorangie produces an exceptionally pure, elegant, and floral spirit. This rare 21-year-old expression, matured in select Oloroso sherry casks and bottled in 2018, showcases the marriage of Highland craftsmanship and Spanish oak. The mineral-rich waters of the local Tarlogie Springs, combined with decades of slow maturation in seasoned Oloroso casks, imbue this single malt with deep layers of dried dark fruits, warm baking spices, roasted nuts, and a velvety, chocolatey finish. It stands as a testament to the distillery's pioneering heritage in wood finishing.
🍾 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.
