Glenmorangie "Lasanta" 12 Years Old Sherry Cask Finish Single Malt Scotch Whisky
(750ml) - [WE 93] [IWSC 93] [USC 92]

Notes from the Maker:
Elegant but full bodied this whisky has spent ten years maturing in American white oak ex-bourbon casks before being extra-matured for a further two years in Oloroso and PX Sherry casks from Jerez in Spain.

Lasanta is Gaelic for warmth and passion, a reminder not just of the Spanish provenance of these Oloroso sherry butts, but also a reflection of this expressions lusciously soft texture and deep, enticingly sweet aroma.Non chill-filtered for additional aroma and mouthfeel.

Tasting Notes:
Aroma: Warm spices mix with smooth chocolate covered raisins, honeycomb and caramel toffee.

Taste: Deliciously sweet sherry flavoured sultanas, orange segments, walnuts and butterscotch combine to create complex warm spices.

Finish: Long and satisfying finish with spiced orange and chocolate covered hazelnuts.

93 Points - Wine Enthusiast

"Aged in Bourbon casks for 10 years, then “extra matured” for two years in Oloroso Sherry casks. The result is luxe and rich, a fine after-dinner sipper. Allow a little time for the aroma to emerge, and a splash of water for maximum flavor. The reward is a thick caramel aroma and flavor, with mouthwatering spicy notes of clove, cassia bark and a hint of orange peel."

93 Pts - Intl Wine & Spirits Competition 2022

"Lovely definition on the palate with smooth vanilla, fresh zesty citrus, tangy ginger and a welcome puff of drying peat smoke on the finish."

92 Pts, Tried & True - Ultimate Spirits Challenge 2022

"Elegant, with nice bottom notes of roasted hazelnuts and toasted pecans, this whisky has a core of roasted Bosc pear and quince, with lacings of butterscotch and crushed clove. The finish is long and even with a hint of wood tannin."
