This is a travel exclusive that I did not know existed until tonight, when Glenmorangie was pouring it at an event to mark the 10th anniversary of its Private Edition series. The 19 was there as a stand in for the Private Edition from 2013, the 19-year-old Elanta. This is a classic malty, creamy Highland whisky, well rounded, robust and long of flavor. Nothing flashy, just a very good Scotch that’s worth picking up if you ever stumble across a bottle.

@dccesq Nice find. Hope I come across one some day.
I agree it is worth a purchase. Mine was rescued from duty free in Charles de Gaulle Airport. I find it very different from the other Glenmorangie expressions I have sampled.
Interestingly it's priced way higher than the 18 yr. 50% more I think. A bit like Laga 16 they priced their high aged statements cheap so makes their attempt at a higher price structure look a bit odd!
