Glenmorangie Astar 1st Release Limited Edition Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky Cask Strength 57.1% Vol. - a special Glenmorangie Single Malt!
Five thousand miles away on a secluded Missouri hillside, oak perfect for the maturation of this whisky reaches straight for the heavens. Here, in the relative shade of these north-facing slopes, we hand-select oak that has grown slowly enough to create a spongier and more porous wood. Perfect for welcoming the spirit and imparting the maximum amount of flavour. The Astar, meaning journey in Gaelic, has certainly come a long way. But with its bright gold colour and smooth but spicy finish, we feel the journey has been more than worth it. The Astar bottling 1st release from Glenmorangie is a second incarnation of the much-loved Artisan cask bottling from several years ago. A massive dram, with huge spices. Aged in Glenmorangie s specially made from using wood from the Ozark mountains in Missouri.
