Glenmorangie Scotch Single Malt Nectar d'Or |
Wine Enthusiast 96 points - TOP 100 SPIRITS OF 2017 - This 12-year-old single malt was finished in casks that previously held Sauternes, the golden sweet wine of Bordeaux. Smooth and elegant, look for a honey hue and notes of vanilla and lemon cream on the palate, finishing with baking spice and a puff of smoke. Adding water unleashes more creamy vanilla and citrus..Kara Newman, December/2017
Ultimate Beverage Challenge 94 points - Dried apricot and subtle wood smoke create an enchanting aroma that swirls from the glass. The complex flavors start as concentrated peach with salted caramel before deepening into crispy creme brulee topping and coffee grounds. Absolutely gorgeous. - 2018 Ultimate Spirits Challenge (Tried and True Award)(Finalist).April/2018
”Great to see French casks that actually complement a whisky - so rare! An exercise in outrageously good sweet-dry balancing” It is here, in hand selected wine barriques from Sauternes: the most famous and ancient sweet wine growing region of France, that this whisky develops its rich, spicy and dessert-like flavours. Non chill-filtered for additional aroma and mouthfeel.
Sumptuous and warming, the Glenmorangie Nectar D'Or has spent ten years in American white oak casks before spending its final two years in Sauternes casks from France.

If this tastes anything close to the 18 year old it's a winner.
I have a bottle of 18 year old Glenmorangie I've been nursing for about 5 years or so. In any event, a healthy splash or two in a cuppa coffee and soon heaven is in reach. I suspect this will behave accordingly. While the spirits are quite fine the shipping and tracking isn't. I'm on the fence about if or not ordering from these folks again.
