Glenmorangie TRIBUTE 16 Years Old Heritage Spirit Batch 43% Vol. 1l in Giftbox

Glenmorangie TRIBUTE 16 Years Old Heritage Spirit Batch 

A lightly peated release from Glenmorangie, this expression explores the distillery’s past, paying tribute to the historic use of a peat fired kiln.

Aged in bourbon casks and married to Glenmorangie’s signature spirit, to achieve a clever balance of subtle peat smoke with their characteristic zest, cream and vanilla.

TASTING NOTES

Color
Deep bronze.

Nose
Fresh cut flowers, subtle smoke, hints of vanilla, a distinctive mossy/grassy note, along with some curious candy/Parma violets, and the tiniest hint of lemon and orange. With water, a burst of beeswax followed by aniseed and char, along with a distinctive menthol/eucalyptus note.

Taste
A smooth texture leads in to an impression of smoked vanilla cream, pears, almonds and some star anise. The classic Glenmorangie sweetness is ever present, but this is intermingled with fennel, bitter almonds, zesty grapefruit and salted fudge.

Finish
A medium-length finish with a light peat touch, fading in to more classic Glenmorangie citrus fruit, sweet vanilla, toffee and oak smoke.
