Glenmorangie
Scotland
Single Malt
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.

I loved the "portwood" finish back in the day. The original QR was great. My expectations are high for the 14 yr old.
Less red berry fruit, which I luv'd in the 12, but a fraction smoother, also more velvety on the tongue. Not worse just different, good wood is scarce & I think the extra 2 years is adequate in compensating for the ever decreasing flavour you get every refill. Shame though I still think the 12 was (alas poot Yorick) better imo... But only just!
Picked up a bottle for the first time yesterday. Excellent taste with a great price point. I have a new favorite whisky.
A beautiful Whisky. Sweet and warm. No smoke, but a sweet aromatic perfume. On the palate, just cake and fulfillment. Highland Perfection from Glenmorange for sipping and savoring.
It was the older 12 year expression that first got me into Scotch, this is fantastically smooth. A bit sweeter than I would usually go for but the complexity is wonderful and the price bumps it up half a star to 5
