Single Highland Malt Whisky, 46%vol
With a tremendous ‘gourmand’ appeal, Nectar D’Or is Glenmorangie’s delicious, complex base spirit that, after a minimum of 10 years in ex-bourbon casks, is then extra matured in specially hand selected Sauternes wine barriques. This makes it rich and sumptuous with a heady, luscious, beguiling spectrum of aromatic patisserie desserts that helps create a memorable occasion whenever it’s enjoyed.
‘Or’ means gold in both Gaelic and French, while of course ‘Nectar’ is the drink of the gods.
Tasting notes by the producer (!):
Colour: |
honeygolden |
Nose: |
Tempted by the Aromas wafting through the door of a French patisserie, you step inside to discover a tangy tarte au citron with its crisp pastry case and smooth lemony cream topping. Next to it with its fluffy sponginess and milky vanilla aroma is a Genoise cake decorated with crystallised lime and orange peel. You can smell plump juicy sultanas, dates, warming ginger, coconut and nutmeg. In the background, gingerbread is baking in a wood-burning oven. Slip some water into the whisky to release the frothiness of lemon meringue pie and the rich aroma of baking fruitcake and warm gingerbread drizzled with crème anglaise. |
Palate: |
The smooth, melting creaminess of lemon tart leaves the mouth full of citrus tang thet gives way to crème caramel and zesty lime. This is replaced by warming ginger coupled with the mellow nutty flavours of nutmeg and toasted almonds that add warmth and chewiness that melts into oozing lemon maringue and melting honeycomb |
Finish: |
Languid and sweet with lemon zest, vanilla cream and delicate hints of ginger and nutmeg |
