Glenmorangie Nectar d’or 12 YO 700ml

Golden in colour and honeyed on the palate, The Nectar is made by finishing Glenmorangie single malt in casks used to age some of the world’s great sweet wines. These include Sauternes and Monbazillac from France, Moscatel from Spain and Tokaji from Hungary. A fitting successor to the discontinued Nectar Dor and an excellent after-dinner dram. (Single Malt)

Nose: Rich and heady, almost decadent, with notes of baking brioche, apricot, vanilla pudding, toasted almond and chestnuts and hints of chocolate truffles.

Taste: The texture is sticky, but with a balancing lemon zestiness. This leads into rich, sweet flavours of vanilla crÈme anglaise, baked apricots, roasting chestnuts, and a mixture of spices, particularly nutmeg and star anise.
