Glenmorangie 18 Years Old - Autumnal memories

Like the golden edge of an autumn afternoon, The 18 Years Old is a dazzling, luminous whisky, balancing sweet and floral lushness, with rich marmalade flavours, honey and fig.

Wander through autumn's radiant richness.

The last hours of a perfect autumn day when the world looks like a golden dream filled with cookie-coloured leaves and butterscotch skies... What would that taste like? The answer is, this dazzling, luminous whisky – a rhapsody of warm tones like purple heather, leaves swirling in the wind and hues of lemon, copper and gold.

To create it, we gather the silky, fruity spirit from our giraffe-high stills and let it steep in American oak casks. No less than 15 years later, we transfer a portion into Oloroso sherry casks for three more years. Once 18 years have passed, we reunite them to create its warm balance of sweet, floral lushness. Rich marmalade flavours brush against honey and fig, touches of caramelized orange and far-off campfire smoke. Have a taste, and let your imagination wander to the edge of an autumn afternoon.

Radiant and floral.

Aroma

Rich, rounded and sweet with dried fruit and a complex floral fragrance.

Taste

A balance between honey, malt and flowery notes. Rich figs and dates emerge with a hint of wood smoke in the background.

Finish

Long and enticing with the sweetness of dried fruit and subtle dryness of Oloroso nuttiness.
