Glenmorangie Barrel Select Release #3 Palo Cortado Cask Finish is a 12-year-old Highland single malt Scotch whisky bottled at 46% ABV in a 750ml bottle. Glenmorangie was founded in 1843 by William Matheson in Tain, Ross-shire, and is renowned for Scotland's tallest stills. The whisky spent its first eight years maturing in American white oak bourbon casks before transfer into rare Palo Cortado sherry casks for an additional four years. Palo Cortado is the rarest variety of sherry, created when protective flor yeast fails to form. The nose opens with vanilla fudge and runny honey, followed by praline and chocolate-coated nuts. The palate is silky, with milk chocolate, caramel, treacle, Brazil nuts and plum jam. The finish is long and nutty, with salted almonds, tobacco and liquorice.
