Glenmorangie 15 Year Old Circa 2000

Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Distillery Bottling 70cl / 43%

A classic bottling of Glenmorangie 15 Year Old, produced around 2000 before the expression was discontinued ahead of the distillery's major brand relaunch in 2007. Long regarded as a favourite, the 15-year-old occupied a unique place in Glenmorangie's range, offering a more restrained interpretation of the distillery's pioneering wood-finishing programme.

The whisky was initially matured in American white oak ex-bourbon casks before receiving a secondary maturation in carefully selected new oak casks. Rather than dominating the spirit, the fresh oak added subtle layers of gentle spice, vanilla and toasted sweetness while preserving Glenmorangie's signature elegance and delicate fruity character.

Bottled at 43% ABV, this discontinued expression showcases the style that helped establish Glenmorangie's reputation during the 1990s and early 2000s. Today it remains a popular release, offering collectors and drinkers the opportunity to experience an important chapter in the distillery's history before the introduction of its modern core range.
