BLEND AND ORIGIN
Master Distiller Dr Bill Lumsden had long dreamed of introducing the soft, mellow taste of cognac to Glenmorangie’s single malt, but the power of the French oak casks had previously threatened to overwhelm its delicate, fruity spirit.

This time, he carefully selected casks that had been filled many times over, softening the wood influence and bringing subtle notes of clove and pepper and hints of leather to the fore.

TASTING NOTES

COLOR
Rustic gold.

NOSE
Apple tart and toffee are delectably deepened by a subtle note of forest floor. Then Glenmorangie's fruity bursts of baked apples, oranges and pears fill the air. A splash of water releases scents of butter candy, more sweet pastry and a touch of beeswax, delicately lightened by mint.

TASTE
Sweet and almost sparkling, like toffee apples and baked pears scattered with almonds and slices of mandarin orange. That fruitiness is deliciously threaded with clove, star anise and soft hints of leather.

FINISH
Long, elegant and gently menthol.
