Glenmorangie Nectar D'or 12 Year

Smooth start. Slight bite and light going down.

Interesting and a tiny bit of a let down at the same time... I will readily admit, this is welcome improvement on the already delicious original Glenmorangie, but there is no real addition to the flavor profile, merely a lovely exaggeration of already classic notes (except for a touch more sulfur on the nose?). The nose is noticeably enhanced, and the palate, intensified. Probably from the extra 3% abv. Sauternes casks seem to help enlarge the citrus, spice and slightly unripe fruitiness, but I'm afraid does little beyond that... After much consideration, this is just barely worth the extra $15-20 more... But I do wish "Original" Glenmorangie 10 nosed & tasted like this...
