About this deal

We take care to make sure product details are correct but the information shown, including vegan and vegetarian suitability, ingredients, and alcohol by volume (ABV) may change. An old 10 year old from Glenmorangie in a decorative tin depicting the famous Glenmorangie Distillery. Really not that good, chocolaty( not sweet) flavour and a bit of cough syrup, with orange hint and bit minty.

The Cadboll is a Glenmorangie single malt originally released for the Travel Retail market which was initially aged in bourbon casks before enjoying a finishing period in casks that once held Muscat and Sémillion wines. A limited edition release from Glenmorangie laid down to celebrate the dawn of the new Millennium and bottled 12 years later. The predecessor of Glenmorangie's Nectar D'Or, the 1981 Sauternes Wood Finish was aged for 21 years, the last two of which were spent in premier cru Chateau d'Yquem casks. There are just 4,000 individually numbered bottles. The Original is double distilled in Scotland’s tallest stills, then matured for 10 years in first- and second-fill American ex-bourbon casks, including remarkable, air-dried bespoke “designer casks” from Missouri.

this is a retirement treat for me,and tastes just like I remember it absolutely marvellous. but don’t tell anyone cos they will want some. the delivery was excellent as well The Glenmorangie distillery overlooks the Dornoch Firth in Tain in the north of Scotland. It was founded by William Mathieson in 1849. The water that Glenmorangie uses comes from the Tarlogie Springs and is extremely hard and rich in minerals. The barrels they use to distil whisky are American Oak Bourbon Barrels that are at least 100 years old. Records the default button state of the corresponding category & the status of CCPA.

A 12 year old from Glenmorangie which was aged for 10 years in American oak before being finished in Premier Cru wine casks for 2 years. Extremel... An old discontinued bottling of Glenmorangie finished in Sherry Wood Casks, now replaced with the La Santa bottling. The palate was ridiculously lovely, it was sweet without being too sweet, I didn’t get any orange or citrus at all but I did get lychee but it was as if the lychee had been dipped in chocolate. As the taste develops it gets very complex and also frustrating as I tried to think of where the sweetness was coming from, I couldn’t nail anything in particular other than it evoked memories of my dear Nana’s sweet bowl which had a bit of everything. A very interesting whisky from Glenmorangie, its first made with barley kilned with botanicals. Inspired by the woodlands near Glenmorangie’s director of whisky creation Dr Bill Lumsden’s home, he decided to make a dram that would evoke the scents, sounds, and sights of the forest. The first taste left me I little disappointed, because I was expecting dessert levels of sweet from Glenmorangie, but I didn't get it. Once I settled into it, I was surprised at how good it got. It was more complex than I was used to, and not as sweet as I expected, but it was really good. If you take your time with it there is A LOT going on, and it's a fun challenge trying to identify the notes. It's sweeter than it initially appears, but the sweetness sneaks up on you because of everything that's happening, it's more toasted than described, and A LOT more enjoyable than it started.A sadly discontinued whisky from Glenmorangie, fans of its 15-year-old single malt will be filled with nostalgia! An interesting find for collectors and tasting clubs alike. First released more than 175 years ago by our founders, the original Glenmorangie 10 year old was known for its mellow tones and delicacy of flavour.

Glenmorangie - Pioneers of cask finishes, the distillery has never shied away from experimentation, and under the guiding hand of Dr Bill Lumsden ... This oaky and fruity small batch release results from rare experimentation with Cognac casks. It elegantly unites notes of spice and leather with Glenmorangie's wondrous fruitiness. The old style 10 year old bottled produced by the 16 men of Tain and presented in a 1 litre offering. A new, higher age stated Quinta Ruban from Glenmorangie. A voluptuously silky spirit, aged first in bourbon casks for smooth, fruity notes, then finished in ruby port casks to create velvety depth. Glenmorangie claims that it is made as it always has been by the ‘16 men of Tain’ but one name more than any other is synonymous with the distillery today: the aforementioned Dr Bill Lumsden. He was the distillery manager from 1995 to 1998, and from then head of distilling and whisky creation for everything in the Glenmorangie Company’s portfolio. Under Dr Lumsden the cask finishes continued such as Sauternes barrel Nectar D'Or, Port cask The Quinta Ruban 14 Year Old and sherry-finished Lasanta 12 Year Old. He’s also been at the forefront of experimentation earlier in the whisky making stage with products like Signet made using chocolate malt, Cadboll made with single estate barley, and A Tale of the Forest which uses barley kilned with botanicals.The whiskey is so well balanced for my palate. Some sweetness, nicely balanced bitterness from the coffee and dark chocolate, rounded out with the orange and tobacco. I get a hint of wood and barrel spice in there too The experience begins with light flurries of fruit and honey, building to torrents of cocoa dust, flakes of red pepper and chunks of brazil nut toffee. It culminates in a feels-like-forever finish that swirls with cinnamon, ginger and clove. It remained under the same ownership for the next 90 years, but Glenmorangie still suffered from the ups and downs that plagued the industry throughout the 20th century. The American market was particularly important for Macdonald & Muir with their Highland Queen blended whisky, named after Mary Queen of Scots. Consequently, Glenmorangie struggled throughout Prohibition, which came into force in 1919, and the distillery closed in 1931, only to reopen in 1936.
