Glenmorangie Nectar D'or 12 Year

I really enjoyed this. It's smooth with a mild finish. I could actually taste the fruits. Looking forward to drinking this again.

Nice & sweet.

This is the previous version that carries a 12 year age statement. I bought it in 2017 but only recently opened it. Before I start I should confess that I’m a big fan of Glenmorangie ‘finished’ expressions. The Lasanta and Quinta Ruban are both worth a slot in anyone’s cabinet, and this whisky is even better than those — although it’s also the most expensive of the three. The nose is simply amazing for a 12 year scotch. So rich and bold with sweet fruits and honey. The palate is sweet on arrival with Christmas cake, dried fruits and toffee that slowly fades away with spice notes, fresh-baked ginger cookies, and chocolate orange. The spices on the finish do balance the sweet arrival some what, but this is a very sweet whisky. This might be a little too sweet for some, but it makes for an excellent after-dinner dram. And at around $75 it’s good value, too.
