Glenmorangie 19 Year Finest Reserve
Single Malt — Highlands, Scotland

November 4, 2022 (edited December 25, 2022)
Note: My bottle was a Dubai market exclusive single cask 19yr old—-but was too lazy to create a whole new SKU here.
Ex-bourbon matured, 43%
Golden straw in color.
Nose is incredible…honey, waxy, nutmeg.
Taste is elegant. You can tell there’s quality behind the cask. Warm honey, vanilla, a bit floral.
I’m normally not a fan of Glenmorangie, but there are some exceptions I really love ( the last one was the Signet first batch). This falls in that category. The only thing I wasn’t a fan of was a slight heat of cinnamon at the end, but I’m being picky. Overall, great cask selection. And why this was for the Dubai market…who knows.

And @ctbeck11 —-I sampled a dram while pouring this out for our tasting. Will be including this one.

@cascode Westport is a teaspooned Glenmorangie that IBs release from time to time.
@Richard-ModernDrinking They used to release the occasional vintage single cask expression, but I don’t think I’ve seen one since the early 2000s, and I’ve never tasted one. For that matter I don’t think I’ve ever had a Glenmorangie single-cask from an IB either.
Sounds delicious! I’ve never had a single cask Glenmorangie before and excited to try it.
An official single cask? Don’t think I’ve ever come across one from Glenmorangie.
