Following on from the success of Glenmorangie’s Malaga Cask Finish comes this limited-release batch of 13-year-old single malt whisky, matured in American white oak bourbon casks and finished in select cognac casks.

This subtle treatment threads an elegant note of spice and leather through Glenmorangie’s renowned fruitiness, giving this singular batch a glorious depth, body and flavour, with a long, elegant finish.

A labour of love

Master Distiller Dr Bill Lumsden had long dreamed of introducing the soft, mellow taste of cognac to Glenmorangie’s single malt, but the power of the French oak casks had previously threatened to overwhelm its delicate, fruity spirit. This time, he carefully selected casks that had been filled many times over, softening the wood influence and bringing subtle notes of clove and pepper and hints of leather to the fore.
