Glenmorangie Artein Private Edition 2011 Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky 46.0% Vol. - a very special Highland Single Malt!
The stunning Glenmorangie Artein Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky is the third edition of the limited Private Edition range by Glenmorangie - the inspiration for this special release of the Private Edition comes from the matter of stone. The jewel of Glenmorangie s Private Edition - Artein - Scottish Gaelic for stone - is a composition of 15 and 21 year old Scotch Whisky matured in American White Oak Bourbon casks and given extra maturation in selected Sassicaia Super Tuscan wine casks.
While Dr Bill Lumsden, Glenmorangie s Head of Distilling and Whisky Creation, was creating Glenmorangie Artein, he was intrigued by the influence of stone in the natural ingredients of whisky, especially given the special importance of this material to us. This relationship begins with the Hilton of Cadboll Stone, an ancient monument that is the inspiration for the whisky. But no less important are the layers of limestone that filter the Tarlogie spring water, giving Glenmorangie Artein its fruity flavours and layers of complexity. Or the rocky Tuscan hills near Bolgheri on the Mediterranean coast, which concentrate the flavours in vines that in turn add complexity to the Super Tuscan casks in which the exquisite single malt has been allowed to mature in addition.
The result is an exceptional and monumental Glenmorangie Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky with a diversity and depth in which the extraordinary legacy of young and old Sassicaia wine and bourbon casks and stone resonates in a very special way. Jim Murray says: A truly sensual and complex dram, gorgeously weighted.
