Glenmorangie A Midwinter Night's Dram Single Malt Whisky

Product Information

This is a whiskey from High West, which might not be immediately apparent from a glance at the label.

The blending team over at High West definitely are doing their best work though, often spending weeks at a time tweaking volumes to get things just right. Nose: Notes of orange marmalade, toffee, walnuts and mulled wine; tones of wine-soaked fruit, Christmas cake and a distinct whiff of musk or incense. Palate: A rich, warming, peppery texture leading into myriad flavors of chocolate orange, ginger, walnuts, praline and some sweet butter candy.Our top priority is for you to be delighted with your purchase from start to finish and exceed your expectations. This High West limited release whiskey is celebrating its 10-tear anniversary with a sumptuous marriage of Rendezvous Rye finished in both port and French oak barrels. Its being a rye is more prominent on the nose, while the cask finishing flavors are more expressive in the mouth. I think if there were a bit more pronounced malty and/or ex-bourbon cask flavor, this would be better and more balanced.

The single malts that got me into ex-wine cask influenced single malts were the Glenfiddich 15 and the Glenmorangie’s 12 year olds. The notes above summarize this pour well - it's also damn delicious by the way if that wasn't clear. Additional sips bring out some berry and ginger; after that, each sip reminds me of preserve-filled thumbprint cookies from my family’s holiday gatherings.I've picked a Starlight barrel that easily gives these a run for their money , there are fancy Angel's Envy releases that use this strategy , and the whiskey world is going crazy for some of Rare Character's single barrel releases like this too. The linger is such a treat with all the Thanksgiving desserts stopping by for a brief kiss of flavor.
