✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Nestled on the shores of the Dornoch Firth in the Scottish Highlands, the Glenmorangie Distillery has been crafting exceptional single malt whisky since 1843. Renowned for possessing the tallest copper pot stills in Scotland—reaching the height of an adult giraffe—Glenmorangie produces an exceptionally delicate, elegant, and floral spirit. The Sherry Wood Finish represents a pioneering chapter in the distillery's history of wood management. This expression begins its journey in American white oak ex-bourbon casks, absorbing sweet vanilla and coconut notes, before undergoing a secondary maturation in hand-selected Spanish Oloroso sherry casks. This dual-cask aging process marries the Highlands' signature bright, citrusy distillate with the deep, festive warmth of Andalusian fortified wine, yielding a complex dram rich with notes of dark chocolate, dried fruits, warm ginger, and toasted nuts.
🍾 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.
