The Glenmorangie Astar bottling is the second incarnation of the much loved Artisan cask bottling from several years ago. The name Astar means journey in Gaelic, & to create this whisky the materials have to travel a long way to the Glenmorangie distillery. Five thousand miles away in Missouri, there is a secluded hillside that grows oak trees perfect for the maturation of whisky. The oak trees experience a range of different conditions for freezing cold to boiling hot, all contributing to making to these oak trees being perfect for casks making & maturing whisky. Right next to the trees are towering mountain slopes that cover the trees keeping them secluded from the harshness of the real world. The trees that will create the casks are hand selected & only the oak trees that grow slowly enough create a spongier & more porous wood. Perfect for welcoming the spirit & imparting the maximum amount of flavour. The colour of the whisky is a bright gold & gives of a rich toffee & crème-brulee, drizzled with fresh menthol, warm cinnamon & deep aniseed spices. On the palate you detect crème-brulee again with a burst of mouth watering pineapple, poached pears & apricots with a hint of vanilla. The finish is smooth & long with a lingering flavour of honey & almonds with a mention of coconut & aniseed. ...

Glenmorangie Finealta is the second released in the Private Edition range by Glenmorangie, the first being the hugely popular Glenmorangie Sonnalta. Carefully selected, limited edition whiskies chosen from the ‘ Cabinet of Curiosities' of Dr Bill Lumsden, Head of the Whisky Creation Team & Glenmorangie. Finealta is a recreation of a recipe dating back to 1903 & the name Finealta comes from the Gaelic word for elegance. Matured in a combination of American white oak casks & Spanish Oloroso sherry casks, this whisky is unusual for its light touch of peatiness, which is reminiscent of the times when Glenmorangie dried its barley in a peat fired kiln. It was at this time when Glenmorangies Single Malt was being served at the Savoy in London. The colour of this whisky is seductive deep amber, which compliments the aromas of Caramelised orange & peaches soaked in liqueur followed by sugared peeled almonds, raisins, lime & a hint of distant woodsmoke. On the palate bursting flavours of mandarin, marmalade & hints of cherry brandy combine with the spiciness of nutmeg & ginger before icing sugar, chewy meringue & violet build up slowly. These entire flavours compliment a full, rounded finish with an aromatic smoke & subtle layers of powdery floral scents. ...
