✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Glenmorangie Tusail is the sixth release in the distillery's prestigious Private Edition series, celebrating the rich heritage of traditional Scottish distilling. The name 'Tusail' is Gaelic for 'original' or 'origin,' a direct nod to the legendary Maris Otter barley used in its creation. First bred in 1965, Maris Otter is a winter barley variety renowned for its deep, rustic, and malty flavor profile. Although it fell out of commercial favor due to low yields, Glenmorangie resurrected this heritage grain, floor-malting it by hand to preserve its unique character. Distilled in the Highlands using Glenmorangie's famously tall copper pot stills—which stand at the height of an adult giraffe to ensure only the purest vapors ascend—and matured in select ex-bourbon casks, this single malt offers a rich, biscuit-like profile with notes of peach, ginger, and toasted malt.
🍾 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.
