Glenmorangie 14 years The Quinta Ruban

Tasting note

Nose

The first thing that stands out and pleases us is the smell of dark chocolate with a hint of fresh mint. Also nice citrus fruit and of course the red fruit coming from the port barrels. A nice full aroma that gets more and more powerful the longer the glass stands. In the beginning we were talking about chocolate with mint, now we even have a red pepper and Turkish delight.

Taste

Glenmorangie's base is smooth like butter and exceptionally pure. It is therefore a very mild encounter when we take a sip from our glass. Sultry, mild and very elegant, yet we call it exciting. Every sip something different happens. First we mention chocolate mousse and biscuits, later almonds and toasted nuts are also mentioned along with sultanas and fig bread.

Finish

A rich finish of stewed fruit and dark chocolate.

More information

Glenmorangie 14 years Quinta Ruban first ages for 10 years in Ex-Bourbon casks. It then matures further in traditional port casks shipped directly to Scotland from Portugal. So we're talking about a Single Malt Whisky with double maturation, because we wouldn't call a 4-year finish a finish anymore.
