Never used before at Glenmorangie, Moroccan red wine casks crafted from French oak give this creation mouth-watering layers of sweet spice.
New charred oak casks add another spicy dimension.
Shaved, toasted red wine casks offer nuanced, fruity notes.
Pedro Ximenez sherry casks bring rich, sweet depths.

Tasting notes:
Nose: Spicy, sweet and wonderfully perfumed, with notes of rose, carnation, jasmine and lilac, alongside cumin, saffron, nutmeg, ginger, chilli and anise. Gentle sweet oak and chestnut follow, with delicate fruits and a touch of menthol.
Palate: The mouthfeel bursts with sizzling spices – ginger, black pepper and mustard seed, balanced by soft sweetness like mint toffee, demerara sugar and sugar-coated almonds. The whole palate is lifted by a distinct eucalyptus note.
