"The latest Glenmorangie Grant Vintage is a 23-year-old single malt whisky from 1998. The whisky dates from the time of the first cask experiments of Dr. Bill Lumsden. In 1998 he was appointed Director of Whisky Creation, having joined Glenmorangie Distillery a few years earlier as Distillery Manager. This was the birthyear of the casks for this new edition. They were newly made for Glenmorangie and heavily charred. Some of those virgin casks –Glenmorangie had never used virgin casks before - were filled with pre-matured whisky and others with Glenmorangie distillate. In order to give the batch for the Glenmorangie Grand Vintage 1998 a wider range of aromas and deeper complexity, Lumsden added whisky from Oloroso sherry casks." —producer |
