Glenmorangie The Duthac (1L, 43%)
$95.00
The Duthac comes from Glenmorangie’s range of expressions originally released for the Travel Retail market. This particular single malt, name after St. Duthac whose resting place sits at the centre of the Royal Burgh of Tain, has been part finished in Pedro Ximénez Sherry and virgin oak casks before being bottled at 43% ABV. Plenty of rich, mellow elements throughout this one (as you’d expect from Glenmorangie), with touches of sticky PX sweetness and herb-y spiciness.
Tasting Note
Nose: full of vanilla, nougat and caramel. Some wood as well. A bit of chocolate and nuts. Again even more sweet to the palate. Vanilla, toffee, nougat, apricots, butterscotch and milk chocolate. Maybe even not that young though it is a NAS release.
Palate: warm honey sweetness vibes.
Finish: Aftertaste is sweet as well ultimately exposing its Glenmorangie core.
In overall: it may lose on points towards the Quinta Ruban but still it’s a good example of what travel retail whisky should be like.
