Initially matured in American oak casks, Glenmorangie Port Wood Finish has been racked into selected port “pipes” for the last few years of its maturation.

The whisky has been aged for a full 14 years instead of the usual 12 years.

Dispaced by the Quinta Ruban, this is a special whisky and rare with most other stockists out of stock. 

Glenmorangie Port Wood:

Nose: Caramel, new oak and freshly cut lemon/lime peels, maple syrup, blackberries, dried cranberries, vanilla and menthol.
Palate: Red berries, oak, a rush of cinnamon and nutmeg, blackberry preserve, a bit of dark chocolate covered espresso beans, and walnut oil.
Finish: Soft sweet citrus and a slow fade to soft oak tannins, pink Canada Mints, and faint raisins. 

Glenmorangie Madeira Wood FinisH:

Nose: This is a complex aroma – fresh, but slightly linty; sweet, but with a burnt tangy trace – literally “madeirised”; a trace of wood shavings.
Palate: The flavour is “cool” to the palate, but spicy on the tongue; fresh and citrus; sweet as it passes, but with a firm dry finish. The winey flavours are slight and unidentifiable; not as sweet as sherry and with a tangy characteristic. 
Finish: Sweet as it passes, but with a firm, dry finish.

Glenmorangie Sherry Wood Finish:

Nose: Warming spices intertwine together with smooth chocolate covered raisins, honeycomb and caramel toffee.
Palate: Deliciously sweet sherried flavoured sultanas, refreshing orange segments, walnuts and butterscotch all combine to create yet more warming spices, this time more complex than the nose.
Finish: Long and satisfying with spiced orange and chocolate covered hazelnuts.
