The new flagship malt from Glenmorangie – 46%
My Tasting Notes:
Nose: Ripe fruit, chocolate, exotic spices
Palate: Coffee, chocolate, dark berries, ginger, orange zest, cinnamon
Finish: Long and spicy
Overall: A very good malt, well-balanced, full-bodied and very complex. But I think the price is a bit too much on the expensive side.
Score: 87/100 – Price Tag $$$$$ – Value for your Money $$$$$

Buy at the Whisky Exchange
The new 10 yo – 46%
My Tasting Notes
Nose: Quite fruity with bananas and apricots
Palate: A bit spirity, not as fruity as the nose but much vanilla and a bit of wood spice
Finish: Rather short and indifferent
Overall: The nose is in 80+ territory but the palate just doesn’t live up to it. Nice for just sipping, but notthing really worth to remember.
Score: 71/100 – Price Tag $$$$$ – Value for your Money $$$$$
