The Duthac comes from Glenmorangie's range of expressions originally released for the Travel Retail market. This particular single malt, name after St. Duthac whose resting place sits at the centre of the Royal Burgh of Tain, has been part finished in Pedro Ximénez Sherry and virgin oak casks before being bottled at 43% ABV. Plenty of rich, mellow elements throughout this one (as you'd expect from Glenmorangie), with touches of sticky PX sweetness and herb-y spiciness.
A must for Glenmorangie fans. A wonderful expression with hints of sweet sherry and cocoa on the nose. The palate is full, rich and the cocoa continues with some honeycomb, dried oak, buttered brioche and a lingering chocolate finish. A drop of water really brings out the chocolate notes. Bought from duty free for around 60GBP for 1 liter.
