The Original is the flagship single malt Scotch whisky from the Glenmorangie Distillery in the Highlands. Matured in a combination of first-and-second-fill American white oak casks for 10 years, the expression is a benchmark for creamy, approachable single malt. A long-running go-to dram for many whisky enthusiasts (including a few here at MoM Towers), this stuff is superb as an aepritif, though more than suitable for enjoying on a cooler evening.
Very fruity and thick. Rich notes of lemon, nectarine and apple. Spices.
Fresh and balanced, vanilla. Boiled sweets, very creamy, tiramisu, toffee.
Quite long, gentle, malty and very fruity.
Citrus punch on the nose with a very malty palate, like digestive biscuits! Smooooooooth smooth finish. Great all round refreshing classic. Could drink anytime.
started with this and it has always been my go to or default whiskey. the burn most describe is the spicy finish i love so much. its so smooth yet flavorful that i literally detect different flavors depending on how much i sip at a time. barely on my lips gives me the hint of spice and honey. alittle more on my tongue and i taste vanilla and peach. a fuller mouth and i rtaste the stronger qualities single malts are known for. oh and make sure to swallow slow as other flavors are unlocked in the back of my mouth with delicious foloow through when it finally settles in the back of my throat. the warmth as it trickles down to my belly is just the comforting icing on this cake of a whiskey!
I am not familiar with what a good dram is. I am not sure how to drink it, so I mix it with water and ice. I would say better than The Gray Grouse and Johnny Walker. I am not sure it is better than Dewars. But what the hell do I know?
Great sm Scotch for the money.
Syrup Peaches, apricots, citrus, balanced. Best 'more affordable' Scotch I've had... Repeat customer. Rated 5 Star because of Qualtiy vs Price
