Glenmorangie 23 Year Old - Dr Bill Lumsden x Azuma Makoto
Glenmorangie
Tasting Notes
Imagine a crisp morning stroll through the Scottish Highlands, where the damp forest floor meets the sweet aroma of wildflowers and the earthy scent of burning oak bark. This enchanting experience has been masterfully captured in the Glenmorangie 23 Year Old - Dr Bill Lumsden x Azuma Makoto. Upon nosing, a burst of luscious fruits – peach, pineapple, damson, and plum – greets you, mingling with the savory notes of roasting chestnuts and freshly baked sourdough. As you add a splash of water, herbaceous and floral aromas unfurl, with hints of intense, scented orchids and a touch of grapey, vinous notes. On the palate, it's rich and velvety, with a waxy mouthfeel that carries flavors of lemon balsam, honeycomb, and poached pears dusted with cocoa powder, complemented by gentle woody and balsamic undertones. The finish lingers, mellow and inviting, with whispers of eucalyptus, lemon, and toasty oak, leaving you longing for another sip of this extraordinary Highland whisky.
