Glenmorangie The Infinita – An Exquisite Single Malt Whisky

Experience depth, elegance, and infinite flavor with Glenmorangie The Infinita – an exclusive Highland single malt whisky crafted to impress even the most discerning whisky lovers.

This 18-year-old whisky begins its journey with 15 years of maturation in exclusive American oak ex-bourbon casks. To add extra complexity and depth, a portion of the whisky is transferred to Oloroso sherry casks for an additional three years before the two parts are reunited. The result is a harmonious and full-bodied whisky with a sophisticated balance of sweetness, spice, and fruity notes.

Tasting notes:

Nose: Inviting aromas of dried fruit, honey, butterscotch, and cedarwood, accompanied by a hint of dark chocolate and roasted nuts.
Taste: A velvety texture with layers of ripe apricot, vanilla, toasted almond, and subtle spices that unfold elegantly on the palate.
Finish: Long and warm with notes of raisins, malt, sherry, and a delicate hint of oak.

Glenmorangie The Infinita is a whisky for those who appreciate craftsmanship and quality. Best enjoyed neat or with a few drops of water to enhance its complex nuances. With its rich character and elegant balance, this whisky is a refined gift for collectors and an essential addition to any whisky enthusiast’s collection.

The tallest, most elegant stills in Scotland At the heart of the Glenmorangie distillery is the still house; the living, beating heart of the distillery where simple raw materials are transformed into exquisite, refined spirits. At 5.14 metres, the Glenmorangie stills are the tallest in Scotland. They are exact replicas of the second-hand gin stills their founder purchased in 1843. Beautiful and elegant, the eight majestic stills tower majestically, filling the vast space from floor to ceiling. The finest wood They are meticulous at Glenmorangie's distillery. To protect the special complexity of their single malts, it's a necessity to use only the very best casks made from the finest wood.Glenmorangie primarily uses American white oak casks that have previously aged bourbon. Most of the casks are 'first fill' casks, which have never been used to age Scotch whisky before. A large proportion are made from air-dried, slow-growing wood to exacting specifications.

There are many advantages to the so-called 'designer casks' made from air-dried, slow-growing wood. The wood is more open and porous and therefore has better storage properties than faster-grown wood. Air-drying the wood reduces the sharpness and bitterness of the wood's tannins and helps to open up the internal structure of the wood, increasing oxygenation. Hush hush about the spring water. The other key ingredient in whisky is water, and Glenmorangie has been sourcing water from Tarlogie Springs since the beginning of time. Every hour, the distillery draws 10,000 litres of water from this spring, which is shaped like a small lake, and it seems incredible that there is always enough water. The water doesn't come splashing down from a rock wall, but constantly bubbles up through the bottom. And from the day the water falls as rain across the landscape to the day it collects in the lake, it takes around 100 years. There's something magical about this bubbling, crystal clear lake. The surroundings are also idyllic and you'd think the place would be full of happy picnic tourists. But no, it's not that easy to find this spring - there are no signs and the road is winding.Glenmorangie makes a point of keeping the location of the spring a secret for fear of it being contaminated. So we won't say anything...
