Released at the start of 2016 for the Travel Retail market, The Tayne from Glenmorangie has been finished in selected Amontillado Sherry casks!
Almonds and walnuts, covered in caramel and brown sugar. A little hint of ground clove brings spiciness.
Orange oil starts off the palate, before giving way to brown sugar and more mixed nuts.
Quite long and spicy.

Disappointed by spicy finish. This is not nearly as rewarding to taste as the original. I had four drinks to ensure I get it right. My first bottle was 5 years back. I thought my taste buds may have changed but I still find it very influenced by an irksome spicy phenomenon. A fail. Leaving 3 stars because..
An above average whisky, dark colour which denote Sherry casks are not too withered, with sweet smell obviously, fruity with more like over ripe fruits, tastes a LTTLE over sweet, especially if you are a straight Single malt drinker !! I l liked the strong woody after taste, however the finish is short !! New single malt Sherry drinkers would like it. Cheers !!

Too strong and a dash of water is needed, it might help. Still bad. Finish is quite long, but dry and woody. Glenmorangie original is better. (R)
As above, but the development is rapid. Although you don't mention it i believe that I detect dark cherry as the brown sugar evolves.
