Glenmorangie Quinta Ruban is a Highland single malt matured first in American white oak casks in the usual Glenmorangie style, then finished in ruby port pipes for extra richness. The port finish pushes the whisky toward dark chocolate, red berry and stewed fruit character, layered over Glenmorangie’s typically light, elegant base spirit rather than covering it up. It suits anyone who likes a sherry or port finished malt but wants more fresh fruit and less heavy sweetness.
CHARACTER
Orange Peel: bright citrus on the nose
Blackcurrant: red berry fruit alongside
Chocolate: dark and rounding through the middle
Walnut: nutty depth on the palate
Black Pepper: a warm spiced edge into the finish
TASTING NOTES
