Tasting Notes
Colour
Rich amber-gold with copper-bronze edges and a mahogany glow.
Nose
Opulent nose of dried raisins and fig, lavishly wrapped in toffee and warm spice. Sherry from Oloroso and Pedro Ximénez unveils vanilla, cocoa and toasted oak, with a subtle nutty edge. A dessert-bright aroma that speaks to Glenmorangie’s renowned smoothness.
Palate
Luxuriously full-bodied, Lasanta coats the palate with rich raisin and fig, caramelized toffee and dark chocolate. Sherry-influenced spice—cinnamon, clove—unfolds against smooth vanilla and almond, finishing with a warm orange zest and a lingering, cocoa-dusted sweetness.
Finish
Long and luxurious, the finish layers raisin and toffee with warm spice, riding on velvety oak. The sherry cask imprint lingers, delivering a dessert-like sweetness that gradually fades into a refined, enduring warmth.
