Released in early 2017 as part of the Glenmorangie Private Edition range, Bacalta was the first expression from the distillery to be finished in sun-baked Malmsey Madeira casks. Dr. Bill Lumsden had bespoke American oak casks made and heavily toasted, then seasoned with Malmsey wine and left to bake in the heat of Madeira's sun. The casks were emptied and shipped to Scotland to finish the Glenmorangie whisky, which had previously been maturing in bourbon barrels.
This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
What can i say.. Amazing, complex, lovely, mind blowingly tasty, and every single superlative in between. Even as a seasoned whisky drinker ... Loved it!!
It’s too sweet for me, and I did not like the finish taste of sugar and mint..
Amazing limited Edition Scotch Whisky! Was nearly sold out but I managed to locate the last 5 bottles in Austin, Texas and bought them all.. Yummy!!!! Couldn't believe this was actually a Limited Edition other wise I would have purchased a case when it first came out :-)
Very sweet - and I'm a fan of sweet malts. The chocolate and caramel/toffee notes are outstanding though, I'll say that. Even the woody notes do not disappoint. The minty thing, however, paired with the sweetness - takes some getting used to. It's very friendly, and manages to be complex at the same time. I just wish it was a little less sugary sweet.
One of my absolute favorites. Top 3 that I've ever tasted from the highlands. Should be a part of every collection and why it's a limited release is beyond me.
