Glenmorangie Tale of Winter 70cl 46%

Description

Following on from Glenmorangie’s A Tale of Cake, the magnificent distillery has gone and created A Tale of Winter. They wanted to evoke the feeling of winter, of sitting in front of a fireplace while the snow fall outside, and to do so, he finished a bourbon barrel-matured single malt in ex-Marsala wine casks. All those rich, comforting, chocolatey notes certainly put this one in the ‘winter warmer’ category. Nose: Honeycomb, chocolate digestives, fragrant lavender, sultana, and cinnamon. Palate: Cocoa, Brazil nuts, vanilla tablet, jammy red berry sweetness developing, crystallised ginger. Finish: Spicy ginger remains, mellowed by vanilla and chocolate mousse.
