Glenmorangie Legends The Duthac 43%
Glenmorangie Duthac 1 Litre
Despite being owned by blenders, MacDonald & Muir, for most of the 20th century, Glenmorangie had an early focus on bottling its single malt. Some records show that its single malt was being sold as early as the late 19th century. This became the distillery's main output in 1959, and with the unique flavours derived from Scotland's tallest stills, coupled with their pioneering use of wood finishing, Glenmorangie is now one of the world's biggest selling malts. As a result, the distillery portfolio over the years has been extensive, and little has been spared for independent bottlers.
Released in March 2015, this is the first instalment in a travel retail range called The Legends. This is named after St Duthac, the patron saint of Tain.
The whisky itself was initially bourbon cask matured, then finished in charred virgin oak and Pedro Ximinez sherry casks.
