Glenmorangie
Scotland
Single Malt
The ninth release in Glenmorangie's Private Edition series is the Spìos (which means 'spice' in Scots Gaelic). This flavoursome single malt is notable for being fully matured in casks that previously held rye whiskey! Not just any rye whiskey, mind you. Glenmorangie's Dr. Bill Lumsden picked casks used to age whiskey made from a 95% rye mash bill for six years as the maturation vessels for the Spìos.
This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
Tasted most of the Glenmorangie's, including eight out of ten from the private edition, and to me this is definitely the best.
Good evening chaps. After the purchase of the Balcata, and this year sampling a few drams of the Spios whilst reminiscing over previous Private Edition greats I'd frankly say the wheels are falling of the wagon . Sort it out.
I'm very disappointed with this whiskey. I've had a few Private Editions and really loved them, they have been varied but always unique and full of wonderful flavours, depth and layers. Not this one. It tastes of nothing other than alcohol! No overnotes, undernotes or inbetween notes. No notes at all. Nothing. It might as well be vodka. Is there such a thing as a bad barrel?? If there is I have definitely drawn the short straw.
Very undergunned. Some might call is subtle but the other way to describe this is insipid. Some orange notes on the nose and the rest of it tastes perfectly smooth and quaffable, but nothing to challlenge you and no real complexity on the finish. There have been some great private editions but not this alas. 10-y-o is twice the whisky for half the price.
My first taste I was not impressed but this drink has grown on me. Taste of cloves is there
