Product Details
Distilled in 2010 and bottled in 2022 at 46% ABV, this Glenmorangie 12 Years Old is unique for its finishing period in Palo Cortado sherry casks. Palo Cortado is the most mysterious and rare variety of sherry, naturally deviating during maturation to combine the delicate, clean aromas of Amontillado with the full-bodied richness of Oloroso. This cask influence bestows the whisky with extreme complexity, making it an essential addition for collectors.
Read more about the brand story
Based in Tain, Scotland, Glenmorangie has been renowned since 1843 for producing the purest single malt whiskies. The distillery features the tallest stills in Scotland (as tall as a giraffe), ensuring only the lightest vapors reach the top to create Glenmorangie's signature elegant style.
Under the guidance of Director of Whisky Creation Dr. Bill Lumsden, Glenmorangie pioneered 'wood finishing' techniques. This 12 Years Old Palo Cortado Cask reflects this experimental spirit. Palo Cortado casks are difficult to source as they require specific natural conditions. Through this wood, Glenmorangie transforms its classic citrus and vanilla base into a deeper profile of leather, toasted walnuts, and caramel chocolate.
