Glenmorangie Sherry Wood Finish

A Glenmorangie finished in sherry casks that demonstrates clearly the effects finishing can have on a whisky. The distillery character is there but you can definitely taste the Oloroso. This is aged for a total of 12 years despite there being no age statement on the bottle.

Tasting Notes

NOSE
Sweet earthy saltiness with much in the way of fruit. Red grapes, blackberries and raspberries.

PALATE
The saltiness comes through more here but it's still fairly smooth and sweet. The freshness is still there.

FINISH
Medium length with some earthy dryness balancing the sweet fruit.
