About this bottle
In 1989, eight casks of vintage Glenmorangie were selected which had been laid down to mature in American White Oak Barrels. The vintage years were between 1976 and 1979. Then transferred this Glenmorangie into casks which previously contained one of the great First Growth Clarets from Pauillac, Bordeaux.
Comes with wooden presentation box.

Situated on the outskirts of Tain in Ross-shire, Glenmorangie has enjoyed rapid success in recent times thanks to the patronage of Moet Hennessy, who acquired the distillery in 2004 for a sum of £300 million from the MacDonald family. Since then, there have been dramatic changes at the distillery and a makeover in terms of appearance including a new modern still house to expand capacity and a refreshing of the range. The new still building also includes fermentation and mashing, which raises the prospect of experimentation, or even a new mini-distillery under a different name. Led by Dr Bill Lumsden, Glenmorangie has pursued a range of cask finishes and no age statements to great success. The classic expression remains the 10 year old, but you’ll also see a variety of special editions and single casks. With the recent improvements, we can expect more from Glenmorangie in the coming years.
