Glenmorangie A Tale of Spices (Scotland) - Reviewed

Описание: Travelling the world in search of extraordinary casks to bring new flavours to Glenmorangie, Dr Bill has always been drawn to spice markets, with their fragrant aromas and rainbow hues.

Envisioning a whisky infused with such variety, he and Master Blender Gillian Macdonald experimented by finishing bourbon-aged Glenmorangie in four different types of cask for the first time.

Never used before at Glenmorangie, Moroccan red wine casks crafted from French oak give this creation mouth-watering layers of sweet spice.

New charred oak casks add another spicy dimension.

Shaved, toasted red wine casks offer nuanced, fruity notes.

Pedro Ximénez sherry casks bring rich, sweet depths.

AROMA
Spicy, sweet and wonderfully perfumed, with notes of rose, carnation, jasmine and lilac, alongside cumin, saffron, nutmeg, ginger, chilli and anise. Gentle sweet oak and chestnut follow, with delicate fruits and a touch of menthol.

TASTE
The mouthfeel bursts with sizzling spices - ginger, black pepper and mustard seed, balanced by soft sweetness like mint toffee, demerara sugar and sugar-coated almonds. The whole palate is lifted by a distinct eucalyptus note.

• A marriage of casks and flavour •
A Tale of Spices brims with sweet spice, floral notes of rose and jasmine are lifted by sugar-coated almonds.
