Product description

Product description
With Glenmorangie A Tale of the Forest, the distillery from the Highlands once again demonstrates its love of experimentation. The malt for this whisky was kilned for the first time over botanicals such as pine needles, juniper and wood smoke. The forest-influenced whisky was then allowed to mature in former and refilled bourbon casks before being bottled at 46% vol. The elaborate and colourful design of the outer packaging and bottle was created by Thai illustrator Pomme Chan, who is said to have an incomparable talent for drawing. Pomme Chan has also worked for other major international brands.

The Distillery: Glenmorangie

The stretch of land in the Northern Highland on which Glenmorangie stands has been the site for alcohol production (mostly illicit) since the Middle Ages, setting a formidable legacy. Glenmorangie was founded in 1843, although operation didn’t start until 1849. read more

    Aroma: Sehr intensiv, würzig, aromatisch. Interessante Rauchigkeit, aber nicht wie typischer Torfrauch, sondern wesentlich würziger mit Tannennadeln, etwas Wacholder und etwas Minze

    Geschmack: Starker, würziger Antritt, man schmeckt eine Schärfe mit Pfeffer und Chili, dahinter aber auch eine Süße, Zitrusfruchtigkeit und Orange

    Abgang: Lang und intensiv, die Würzigkeit und die Raucharomen bleiben noch lange am Gaumen

    Kommentar: Wow! Das ist mal etwas ganz anderes, diese Würzigkeit und der Rauch eröffnen einen ganz neuen Whisky-Genuss. Als Glenmorangie-Fan bin ich begeistert von der Vielfalt dieser Brennerei.

    Aroma: Herbs Sweet Citrus Peat Smoke

    Geschmack: Herbs Mint Peat Smoke Sweet Vanilla Citrus Ginger

    Abgang: Herbs Mint Ginger

    Kommentar: Sehr interessanter, komplexer und ungewöhnlicher Glenmorangie, komplett etwas anderes, aber sehr gut und - weil er so anders ist - auf jeden Fall eine Kaufempfehlung

    Abgang:

    Kommentar: Der ist nicht rauchig, eher wie rauchlos brennendes Holz. Untypischer Glenmorangie, alle Anderen sind milder & fruchtiger.
