Glenmorangie Lighthouse

Single Malt — Highlands, Scotland

Reviewed July 24, 2023 (edited July 25, 2023)
4.25
4.25 out of 5 stars
If you have been at Glenmorangie distillery in the past two years, you will notice that just beside the old warehouses there is this ultra modern, state-of-the-art, shining, solar powered building that looks like it came from the year 2080. The outter facade is 100% made of a "see trhu" glass where you can spot a working still. This magnificent contraption is called "The Lighthouse". Yes my friends, Glenmorangie is all about sustainability these days, and they have developed a new way to power their stills, with solar energy. Of course, this occasion was celebrated with a whisky expression called "the Lighthouse" as well.  I had zero expectactions about it, and i wss pleasantly surprised. Let's talk about this single malt at 48%abv, only 4782 bottles where ever made. On the nose, this is the heart of a tangerine. Crushed almonds and pineapple. Fruit salad and lemon meringue. Lovely. On the palate it was very good! Vanilla crust, fondant. Very fruity and not spicy at all. Passionfruit and pineapple. Aftertaste is dry with an "almondy" finish. A little grassy. Pineapple. Overall, i never even care about this whisky when i saw it when i was scrolling through auction websites, but i am super glad i had the chance to try it at the distillery premises. A very fruity, well crafted dram that i think anyone can enjoy. I have to admit i was surprised here. My score for it is a honest 88 over 100.
