Glenmorangies 'A Midwinter Night's dram' is said to have been inspired by the long held tradition where The Sixteen Men of Tain (those who worked at the distillery year round) were treated with a special whisky in the festive season created by the Master Distiller as a thank you for their role in the creation of Glenmorangie. This gift was shared by the Men of Tain with friends & family from St Andrews Day to Christmas to Burns Night. This is the original batch from 2015. Nose: Notes of orange marmalade, toffee, walnuts & mulled wine; tones of wine-soaked fruit, Christmas cake & a distinct whiff of musk or incense. Palate: A rich, warming, peppery texture leading into myriad flavors of chocolate orange, ginger, walnuts, praline & some sweet butter candy. Finish: A soft, medium strength, creamy finish, with further notes of malt biscuit & plump raisins. ...

While crafting Glenmorangie Artein Dr. Bill Lumsden, Glenmorangie's Head of Distilling & Whisky Creation, was intrigued by the influence of stone in the natural ingredients of the whisky, especially considering the material's special significance to the br&. This relationship begins with the Hilton of Cadboll Stone, an ancient monument that is the whisky's inspiration. Nose: Sweetness dominates, maple syrup & thick cream. Sweet fruits, apricots & peaches. A subtle spice, with hints of oak. Palate: The sweetness from the nose shines through, spice is slightly more prominent. Notes of dry wood & cloves. Distinctive sweet fruits, peach & red apples. Finish: Long, the sweetness is overridden by the spice. ...

The Glenmorangie Astar (Scots Gaelic for “journey”), a single malt entirely matured in bespoke oak casks, which were designed to deliver perfection in the final spirit. The Astar’s extraordinary casks are hewn from h&-selected slow-grown oak trees from the Ozark mountains of Missouri. Although the silken depths of its first release delighted connoisseurs, such casks are so rare that it has taken years to orchestrate its renaissance. In 2017, The Astar’s triumphant, limited-edition return brings a newfound richness & complexity to this smooth, creamy & long celebrated single malt. (last one left in stock
- slight damage to cardboard carton!) Nose: Rich aromas of butterscotch & honey are balanced with bright, floral top notes, the freshness of mint, freshly squeezed lemons & a delightful burst of coconut. Palate: mooth & creamy on the palate, as sumptuously sweet crème-brûlée emerges with tropical fruits, apricots & vanilla custard, hazelnuts in soft buttery fudge, then clove, toasted oak & a hint of cooling menthol. Finish: Honey & almond mingle with coconut ice & aniseed for an enduring smoothness at the finish.

Finished in Burgundy barrels, this is one earthy Glenmorangie, an interesting dram for sure, & one that bears little resemblance to the standard bottling. Initially matured in American oak casks, Glenmorangie Burgundy Wood Finish has been racked into selected Burgundy ' Barriques' from the Cote D'or for extra ageing in the final period of its maturation. Nose: Toasty. Some bitterness. Woody, red grapes & raisins with sea saltiness & overripe red berries. Palate: Sweetish. Very fruity. Winey. Easily drinkable. Quite tannic & peppery, there is a vanilla sweetness here but the oak wood is dominant. The saltiness comes through in the middle with a bit of the red fruit. Finish: Medium length & earthy. Quite dry but leaves a lasting honey grape sweetness. ...

This 13 year old Highland single malt was hand selected by the Glenmorangie distillery Manager as part of the Distillery Manager's Choice series.

This hand numbered bottle (number 315) comes in fabulous condition, complete with original oak presentation case. ...

Glenmorangie Bacalta Single Malt Scotch Whisky - 70cl 45%

Released in early 2017, Glenmorangie's Bacalta is the first expression from the distillery which has been finished in sun-baked Malmsey Madeira casks. Dr. Bill Lumsden had bespoke American oak casks made and heavily toasted, then seasoned with Malmsey wine and left to bake in the heat of Madeira's sun. The casks were emptied and shipped to Scotland to finish the Glenmorangie whisky, which had been matured in ex-bourbon barrels. Nose: Succulent apricots ripened in Madeiras island sun emerge from fragrant, honeyed aromas. A curiously flinty note gives way to beguiling hints of white chocolate. Palate: Complex layers of honeycomb follow an initial burst of mint toffee. Almonds come forth to mingle with dates, caramelised oranges and more apricots. Finish: Creamy fudge emerges in the
long, syrupy aftertaste, alongside caramelised citrus and pears. All are played out against an intriguing mentholic backdrop...
