✨ 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
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.
