- Description
- Glenmorangie's signature 12-year-old Highland single malt, matured exclusively in ex-bourbon casks to reveal a characteristically light and elegant profile. Bright citrus and tinned peaches dominate the palate, supported by almond, coconut, and maple syrup that build a rounded sweetness. The texture is smooth and accessible, with vanilla carrying through to a clean finish. A benchmark introductory Scotch that suits both newcomers and those seeking an everyday dram.
