Glenmorangie Signet

What. A. Nose. Wow. Rich deep scents. First impression is jalapeño infused coffee. Some dark chocolate, yes. Zest. Spice lingers. If only the finish were longer. 10/9/17

Taste - Dark chocolate, skin-on hazelnut praline bittersweet, light fruity bitter orange pith, black peppercorn and cinnamon poaced pears. Finish - Lingering dark chocolate bitterness, sweet nutty bittersweet, faint black pepper fading heat, malted milk candy sweet. Score - 89/100 Final Thoughts - This is my favorite Glenmorangie expression I've tried thus far. The nose is incredible and I can feel as if I can nose it for days. Sadly it falls a bit flat once it hits the tongue as you're a bit overwhelmed by the soft chocolate bittersweet. I was hoping to get a bit more dark stone fruits, but those were significantly downplayed and overwhelmed by the chocolate bittersweet. The finish is long lasting, but is a bit one-dimensional as it lingers like you ate a dark chocolate malted milk ball and that's about it. Definitely meant to be sipped neat, although I can see this being turned into a super fancy chocolate/dessert old fashioned too.

Sweet and smooth
