✨ Tekniske specifikationer

Hailing from the legendary Glenmorangie Distillery in the Scottish Highlands, renowned for possessing the tallest copper stills in Scotland, this exceptional 22-year-old single malt represents the pinnacle of cask experimentation. Distilled in 1998 and bottled in 2020, this rare expression was finished in a hand-selected red wine cask from the prestigious Pommard appellation in Burgundy. The delicate, citrus-and-peach-forward spirit of Glenmorangie, shaped by the mineral-rich waters of the Tarlogie Springs, underwent a beautiful transformation in the French oak. The Pommard cask infuses the mature Highland whisky with rich notes of dark cherries, forest floor, and a structured, velvety tannin profile, bridging the worlds of Scottish distilling craftsmanship and French viticultural heritage.

🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten

Glenmorangie blev grundlagt i 1843 af William Matheson ved de fredfyldte bredder ved Dornoch Firth nær Tain i det skotske højland, og destilleriet er i dag verdensberømt som en pioner inden for Highland single malt whisky. Destilleriet er særligt kendt for at have Skotlands højeste svanehalsede kobberkedler, hvor kun de letteste og reneste dampe slipper igennem, hvilket resulterer i et enestående elegant og floralt rådestillat. Med mineralrigt kildevand fra de fredede Tarlogie Springs og førsteklasses skotsk byg har Glenmorangie – i dag under Moët Hennessys lederskab – længe været førende inden for banebrydende fadlagring og skræddersyet efterlagring på udvalgte fade. Deres alsidige portefølje spænder fra den klassiske signaturwhisky 'The Original' med sine klare citrus- og vaniljenoter til komplekse nyskabelser som den chokolademaltede Signet samt sjældne, eftertragtede vintage-aftapninger.
