Glenmorangie 1996 Grand Vintage Malt Whisky

Sixth in the Bond House No. 1 Collection, Grand Vintage 1996 is the first Glenmorangie whisky to be aged in specially designed casks. This is a rare chance to own a piece of the distillery's history.

Inviting a greater synergy between whisky and wood, these casks are first seasoned with bourbon for four years, then lightly charred to magnify Glenmorangie's creamy character.

• Glenmorangie 1996 Grand Vintage malt whisky is bright sunburst gold
• Fresh, floral and perfumed, with hints of roses, carnations, jasmine and a curious herbal note like coriander. Luscious mandarin orange and pear follow, with a beautiful candy sweetness, reminiscent of mixed fruit jellies. A splash of water releases even more floral notes of carnation and geranium, along with some soft, buttery vanilla
• A zesty, citrus mouthfeel leads into a powerful burst of citrus fruits like oranges and lemons, kept under control by the thread of soft, sweet vanilla and fudge. The finesse for a whisky of this age is quite remarkable, with gentle spices, such as ginger and sweet chilli and subtle oaky notes
• Delicate and dancing with almonds, pear and cake mix
