Glenmorangie's Quinta Ruban 12 Year Old is a fantastic Port cask finished expression, and now the distillery has developed upon the recipe with The Quinta Ruban 14 Year Old! The whisky is initially matured in bourbon casks before being moved over to ruby Port casks, imparting waves of scrumptious fruit and chocolate notes to the spirit. Superb as a postprandial dram.
Summer fruit tart with a sprinkling of icing sugar, aromatic cedar, milky coffee and almond pastries.
Chocolate mousse, Bourbon biscuits, orange oil, more almond notes (now toasted), blackcurrant and raisin.
Lasting richness of stewed berries and dark chocolate.
A friend recommended it, I thank him. It was excellent. I paired it with a nice cigar and enjoyed an end of day chill time on the porch overlooking acres of open fields with a star filled sky. Nice end to the day!
I usually drink Islay whiskey, Laphroig and Ardbeg in particular, but this stuff is just awesome. It's a seriously good quality malt, especially for the price, and it's just flat-out delicious. I'll always have a bottle of this stuff on my shelf.
Wouldn’t recommend and certainly won’t purchase again,Glenmorangie was my favorite whiskey back in the eighties.Like many great distillers now owned by large conglomerates.
I had a small sample pack of 4 Glenmirangie scotch whiskeys. This was my favorite!
Found the port influence overpowering, not to my taste unfortunately. Tastes like old, sour gone off wine. Could possibly be a bad bottle, but I’m not buying another one to find out.
