The Grand Vintage Malt 1989 contains some of the last spirit to be distilled at Glenmorangie's former still house, before its stills – the tallest in Scotland – were moved into their current location in an old bonded warehouse – Warehouse No.1.
Dr Bill Lumsden, Glenmorangie’s director of distilling, whisky creation and whisky stocks, selected casks from 1989 to undergo further maturation, some of which were recasked into rare Côte-Rôtie red wine casks.
Dr Lumsden said: ‘Each cask in the assemblage had been carefully chosen to complement the exquisite depths brought to the whisky by the parcel finished in ex-Côte-Rôtie casks.
‘It is peppery on the palate, with glorious, full tastes of baked apples and buttery fudge, leading to a long and powerful finish.’
The single malt joins the distillery’s inaugural Bond House No. 1 Collection release, Glenmorangie Grand Vintage Malt 1990, release in 2016, which contains some of the first new make spirit following the stills’ move into Warehouse No.1.
