✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Hailing from the legendary Glenmorangie Distillery in Tain, within the rugged Highlands of Scotland, this exceptional 25-year-old Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky represents the pinnacle of patient maturation. Established in 1843 by William Matheson, Glenmorangie is celebrated for possessing the tallest copper pot stills in Scotland—standing at the height of an adult giraffe—which ensure only the lightest, purest vapors ascend to condense into spirit. 'The Altus' pays homage to this soaring height and elevated craftsmanship. Drawn from a selection of the distillery's finest casks, this expression showcases a quarter-century of interaction with oak, yielding a deeply complex profile of dried stone fruits, warm baking spices, toasted coconut, and the signature floral, honeyed undertones derived from the mineral-rich Tarlogie Springs water source.
🍾 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.
