Glenmorangie A Tale of Winter
The snow and bitter cold has arrived here in Boston; winter is truly upon us. To celebrate the cold weather, Glenmorangie launched A Tale of Winter, giving us all the warm and cozy feels. A Tale of Winter is a 13-year single malt finished in Marsala wine casks from Sicily. The brightly colored bottle is…
X by Glenmorangie
If someone were to ask me if they could use my scotches for cocktail mixing I’d really have to think about. Some scotches are simply not made for cocktails which is probably why Glenmorangie partnered with bartenders to create X. It’s a single malt scotch whisky made for cocktail mixing. I mean.. how fabulous is…
Glenmorangie A Tale of Cake Single Malt Whisky
Now you can not only have your cake but… you can drink it to. And, before I get into the whisky let me say, bravo Glenmorangie the packaging is beautiful. For this bottle, I stood in the middle of the aisle asking myself, do I really need it? Part of me said no, while the…
Glenmorangie Single Malt Scotch Dinner
Ah, another whisky dinner… although this dinner was not just simply a whisky dinner, this one was special. This past weekend we attended the Glenmorangie Single Malt Scotch dinner at the Boston Omni Parker House. It was a special dinner because it was Frank Weber’s last whisky dinner.

Glenmorangie Nectar D’Or
Whenever I think of sweet whiskies one of the first brand that comes to mind is Glenmorangie. Most of the Glenmorangie whiskies I’ve tasted have been on the sweeter side and this Nectar D’Or is no exception. For this expression Glenmorangie starts the maturing process in bourbon casks and finishes the process in Sauternes casks….

Tusail (means Original in Gaelic) is Glenmorangie’s latest no-age-statement release and it is their sixth release in their private collection. Their private collection first launched in 2010 and since then they have released a new whisky every year under this range. What’s unique about this whisky, aside from the barley being floor-malted, is the barely…
What’s your favorite whisky… Macallan. Have you heard that before?
Today instead of my normal whisky review I wanted to address something most novice whisky drinkers do. This actually includes a lot of my friends as well. Here is what I would say to them if we were having a dram together. If you are starting to drink whisky one of the best ways to…
Glenmorangie The Lasanta
I was first introduced to Glenmorangie, a highland whisky, by my friend Fiona. Glenmorangie The Original happens to be one of her favorite whiskies (http://wp.me/p3Zt2k-1H). Not too long ago a friend hosted a party and I was introduced to another Glenmorangie whisky, in this case, Glenmorangie Lasanta. Lasanta, Gaelic for warmth and passion per the…
Glenmorangie: The Original and Quinta Ruban
With so many options out there for whisky it’s always hard to know which ones you are actually going to like and not like if you’ve never tried them before. If I am out for dinner or out in the city, I always look at the list of whisky, whiskey and bourbons, if there is…
