Glenmorangie Spios - Private Edition No. 9 Single Malt Scotch Whisky
In stock
Glenmorangie's first single malt whisky fully matured in American ex-rye whiskey casks (and for that matter Scotland's first ever 100% ex-rye cask aged malt as well)
The 9th release in the Private Edition series that focus on experimental cask finishing and production methods.
Spios is Scots Gaelic for "Spice" and pronounced "spee-oss" and reflects the spicy elements normally associated with Rye whisky from North America.
Glenmorangie's renowned smoothness invites rye's subtleties to shine through in a way that many others would not.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Bright amber-gold with coppery undertones and a warm sunlit bronze glow.
Nose
Fresh and herbal, the aroma hints at cherry, clove and mint toffee, with notes of green grass. A splash of water releases perfumed, crisp, clean scents and an inviting complexity of herbal tones.
Palate
Rye's characteristic spice bursts forth, with toffee, clove and cinnamon mingling with nutmeg and sweet, buttery vanilla.
Finish
A long, luxurious finish that lingers with sweet toffee and brazil nut, accented by a citrus tang.
