Took a 50 ml bottle with me on a flight for a nice treat. I think the port finish on the base Glenmorangie is a fantastic addition, filling in the weaknesses of the light and simple 10 year to add richness, depth, body, and provides what is still a relatively unique profile even with the myriad of new options on the market.
Not a complex pour to be analyzed, just a really nice, approachable and affordable pour is dessert in a glass. Slainte!

@dubz480 That’s a silly good price... typically 40+55+60, best is about $5 less apiece. I don’t think I’d recommend them to an experienced scotch drinker, but for that price they are great to have on hand to offer folks wanting to try it out. The 10 is a a perfect intro, and I have very fond feelings for the port finish. Lasanta (sherry finish) doesn’t stand out time but still is a decent value.
Nice review! I was curious about this one as my Costco is selling it, the 10 and the Sherry cask for $75.
