Glenmorangie Single Malt Whisky 24 Year Old 750ml

Cask No. 0004 was especially selected by Dr. Bill Lumsden from the innermost recesses of Warehouse 32. Powerful, spicy – yet distinctively Glenmorangie, this single malt shows rare poise.

The spirit was distilled on Tuesday 6th May 1997, closely observed by Dr. Bill Lumsden, then Glenmorangie’s pioneering Distillery Manager. Over the next ten years it would age patiently in American oak bourbon casks, gaining the single malt’s smooth, fruity style. Then Dr. Bill selected this whisky for an unusual trial with French oak casks. Renowned for its intense, tannic character, this wood is a rare companion for Glenmorangie’s soft spirit. And it would take all Dr. Bill’s skill to balance their contrasts as the whisky matured. he watched closely over 13 long years of finishing, as one cask unveiled an outstanding harmony of flavors. Deep and oaky, but delicately fruity too. Cask No. 0004 is a testament to Dr. Bill’s expertise.

Color: Deep amber.

Aroma: At first deliciously fruity with mango, melon and pineapple – and Glenmorangie’s hallmark orange notes. Sandalwood and spicy clove oil follow on.

Taste: Deep and powerful. Oaky dryness and notes of white pepper are set against mouthcoating fruit and honeycomb. Finally, berries, vanilla and Brazil nuts shine through with more oak at the finish.
