The Glenmorangie Calvados Cask Finish is the fifth release in the Glenmorangie’s Barrel Select series of small-batch single malts, which explores the flavors that arise from different cask finishes. Entwining scents of jasmine with baked apples and pears, this rare 12-year-old bottling offers new mellow depths to Glenmorangies signature fruity tones.
Led by the acclaimed Director of Whisky Creation Dr Bill Lumsden, Glenmorangie crafts the delicate, fruity spirit in stills as tall as a giraffe to allow more space for taste and aroma, then age it in the worlds finest casks.
Inspired to experiment, he took a whisky which had spent more than 10 years ageing in American white oak bourbon casks, for Glenmorangies elegant style. He transferred that whisky into casks which, for 20 years, had held Calvados du Pays dAuge, from Normandy, in France.
Soft and delectably rich, Glenmorangie Calvados Cask Finish unites mellow fruits of baked apples and pears with subtle notes of jasmine, narcissus and vanilla.
