Description

Proprietary distillation of single malt Scotch whisky from the northeast Scottish highlands. Usually bottled in a 10 year cask age vintage, though special bottlings (of which there are several, always) are often aged substantially longer. Glenmorangie pioneered the practice of aging Scotches in barrels previously used for aromatized wines like Port and sherry.
