GLENMORANGIE 18 YEARS OLD
In the final maturation of our Glenmorangie 18 Years Old we engage a
cautious quota of ex-sherry casks. These, we believe, are most properly
employed for rounding-off a more aged malt. Indeed, they produce a very
different character, balancing the aromas and flavours which have by now
developed. The changes that take place during prolonged maturation are
profound. The characteristic refinement of Glenmorangie - the floral bouquet
and mandarin/citric notes - are still abundantly present, but are enriched and
enhanced.
Tasting Notes
The 18 Years Old introduces notes of honey, nuts and caramel; it
is silky smooth to taste, mellow and artfully balanced, and has a sweet
richness - traces of vanilla or custard-cream, but with a minty freshness and a
very long finish. It will reward leisurely consideration by even the most
discriminating whisky connoisseur. View label (24K jpeg)
