Glenmorangie The Accord 12 Year

December 1st advent box. Tried neat with my lovely friend Victor who invited me to be part of this amazing advent calendar! Very floral and fruity on the nares with notes of vanilla, plum, orange. It’s spicy on the palate but smooth with notes of fruit like plums and dates. I don’t get the cappuccino but I wish every cappuccino tasted like this 🤣

On the nose you can find sweetness, dried fruits, raisin, caramel and vanilla. The influence of oloroso is present, and looks like the sherry casks used here were American oak, not European. I couldn’t notice any hints of spices. On the palate I did find it light, with a fruit marmalade profile. Dark chocolate, caramel again, cinnamon, and a short to medium finish. A good whisky, it’s like a less-complex, less refined Glenmo 18, but with more punch.

Dourado-claro, cristal. Aroma firme, com amêndoas e frutas cristalizadas. Punch leve, estrutura suave.

Sweet ginger spice on the nose. Dark fruits on the palate with a short finish. Could be more interesting. A low proof holds it back.

Fruity with a rich sweetness. Chocolate covered cherries and a slight burnt caramel. The sherry and bourbon casks are certainly noticeable, so mission accomplished.

Sweet. Carmel but subtle.

Nose: Vanilla, raisins, caramel, oak, raspberry Palate: Nuts, raisins, strong sweetness Finish: Sweetness, oak, chocolate Much sweeter and less spicier than the lasanta. Still liking it though.
