    Overview

    Glenmorangie 18 Year Old

     
    A specially aged, rare malt scotch whisky of distinction. With a rich bouquet and full rounded flavour it appeals to the luxury spirits drinker who appreciates serious quality.
     
    Honeyed gold in colour, Glenmorangie 18 Years Old has a silky, smooth texture, a long enticing finish and an intriguing balance of sweet dried fruit and dry Oloroso nuttiness. Its key flavour notes are mellow, nutty and dried fruit.

    An overflowing abundance of arresting aromas that tantalise at the first nose of Glenmorangie 18 Years Old. The rich, resinous quality of nuts cascades into a crisp toffee sweetness of crème brulée, merging with caressingly smooth, creamy vanilla. Hints of vibrant oranges & lemons are found. Crunchy textured walnuts follow, oozing into golden honeycomb that trickles over sun-ripened sticky dates. Then sparkling floral tones emerge, taking the edge off any cloying sweetness, with the green, almost herbal bouquet of geranium, tempered with musky jasmine and the bright, sharp clarity of narcissus.

    With water, 18 Years Old reveals a rich oaken, balsamic character that yields to soft vanilla. At this moment, the signature Glenmorangie fruity complex reveals itself in golden apricots and dates mingled with hazelnuts.

    Glenmorangie 18 Years Old slips like silk over the tongue with a full, rounded flavour, starting with grapefruit & orange. The palate is then entranced with an accord of melting honey, creamy malt and aromatic florals that segue into the warm, syrupy nuttiness of hazelnuts and walnuts from the Oloroso sherry casks in which the whisky is matured. Savour the rich, sticky date and fig flavours as they are heightened by the unexpected caress of woodsmoke.

    Lingering and enticing with the subtle sweetness of dried fruit and the nutty dryness of sherry.

    ABV: 43% 

    Background Information:
    In 1843 William Matheson granted a licence to distil and the Glenmorangie Distillery Company was established. Beautifully seductive and deliciously captivating, Glenmorangie single malt Scotch whisky is an irresistible feast of taste, texture and aroma. 

    At the core of the distillery is a small group of men, with immense skill and enviable knowledge; The Sixteen Men of Tain still follow the mystical art of turning barley and mineral-rich, Tarlogie spring water into the famously complex and elegant whisky.

    Slowly matured for 15 years in the finest ex-bourbon oak casks, a proportion is transferred to Spanish Oloroso sherry casks for the final three years of maturation.
