Glenmorangie Nectar d'Or Whisky

A really easy sipping whisky.
Thank you.

Absolutely splendid!!

Nose: Citrus and peel, candied fruit.
Palate: Vanilla, fruit, fall spice, touch of sting.
Finish: Oak and tannins, maple but not sweet, long lasting.

Well now; I am quite partial to a sweet white wine finish, having enjoyed some Bruchladdich expressions. So I was taking the negative reviews with a pinch of salt. If this is the sort of thing you don't like, you won't like it. Mistake. This is rather poor.
Nose - lemon shortbread
Palate - this where the problems lie; it needs something else (dried fruit?) to balance the sweetness.
Finish - long and not bad
It's not terrible but not a great buy.

Such a disappointing addition to the Glenmorangie cask finish series, not as bad as the Glen Moray Chardonnay finsh, but as white wine finishes go... Just stop! There is no 'maturation' just Sauternes 'taint'. Nose and palate seem fine and typically 'morangie, but the finish... My word, dram down the drain.

Not even remotely close to what the old 16yo was. Highball stuff to be mixed. Sad

Sip a sip, wait a couple of seconds, and take a slow breath in and out through your mouth. The floral notes on the out breath are like perfume. Never had another whisky like it. Must be the Sauternes casks.

Very good value all you want from a whisky smooth like honey but not overly sweet nice sharp fruit that counteracts the sweetness to easy to drink great with a slice of cake

Nose: Toffee vanilla.

Palate: Peppered spice is full, sweet and wholesome. No sourness. 

After: Lemony and thick.

Really one of my top 3 daily sippers!

Sweet, but not overly so. The vanilla and honey flavors are balanced by the cinnamon and gingerbread notes.

Oh... and try opening the bottle, have a dram, then close it and put it aside for a month. Then, re-open. You will find that it will have gotten so much better!

Love this whisky!
