Glenmorangie has announced the third whisky in its Bond House No 1 Collection: Glenmorangie Grand Vintage Malt 1993, a 25-year-old whisky \u2018finished\u2019 in ex-Madeira casks for 15 years.<\/p>\n
A travel retail exclusive, Glenmorangie Grand Vintage Malt 1993 spent a decade in ex-Bourbon casks, before being transferred to casks previously used to mature Bual Madeira, where it spent another 15 years.<\/p>\n
It is described as having a \u2018rich, bittersweet taste\u2019 and displaying the \u2018utmost depth and minerality that a Madeira finish can bring to Glenmorangie\u2019s elegant house style\u2019.<\/p>\n
\u2018The flinty intensity of Glenmorangie Grand Vintage Malt 1993 is a rare tribute to the distillery\u2019s new, more exacting approach to whisky creation,\u2019 said Dr Bill Lumsden, Glenmorangie\u2019s director of whisky creation, distilling and whisky stocks.<\/p>\n
\u2018Before, we might never have dared such a long finish \u2013 and left this expression\u2019s depths undiscovered.\u2019<\/p>\n
This is the third release in Glenmorangie\u2019s Bond House No 1 Collection, which takes its name from the largest of the Highland distillery\u2019s 19th-century bonded warehouses, converted into a still house in 1990.<\/p>\n
The first expression, Glenmorangie Grand Vintage Malt 1990, was released in 2016, followed earlier this year by the launch of Glenmorangie Grand Vintage Malt 1989.<\/p>\n
Glenmorangie Grand Vintage Malt 1993, bottled at 43% abv, will be available in travel retail, priced from \u00a3512\/\u20ac575 a bottle.<\/strong><\/p>\n
