✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Glenmorangie, nestled on the scenic shores of the Dornoch Firth in the Scottish Highlands, has been distilling its legendary single malt since 1843. The distillery is famous for possessing the tallest copper stills in Scotland, which are the height of an adult giraffe. These exceptionally tall necks ensure that only the lightest and purest vapors ascend to the top, creating an inherently elegant, floral, and delicate spirit. This rare 30-year-old expression, bottled in 2004, showcases the distillery's pioneering expertise in wood finishing. After spending decades maturing in American white oak ex-bourbon casks, the whisky was finished in hand-selected Oloroso sherry casks. This dual maturation coaxes out deep notes of dried fruits, warm baking spices, and roasted nuts, paying homage to the traditional craftsmanship of the legendary 'Sixteen Men of Tain' who historically ran the distillery.
🍾 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.
