Glenmorangie Signet

Had at Swallow bar with my black friend Steve, his brother and Bud. We went to Porkies BBQ first and for the first time in history I didn't eat way too much of the BBQ. Had a real good brisket sambo, chips and a potato salad. This Glenmo was very easy down with heaps of dried fruit flavour and chocolatey stuff smoothing it all out. Wish I wasn't aware of the chocolate malt prior to tasting to see if I'd have naturally picked it. Really delicious and would love me a bottle of this. Medium finish. Great

$150 a bottle

Very nice dram, but would I pay $210 again after tax for it? Not so sure. The nose is caramel, sweet dark brown sugar, and dark roasted coffee. The palate has the chocolate with some major fruit currants. Black cherries as big as mountains. This all sounds superb, but after some oxidation, I started getting an off-putting banana note. If you like bananas (not for me) then you'll grant it 5 stars, hands down. It does have a nice medium length spicy finish.

The chocolate flavor makes this excellent for after dinner.
