Glenmorangie Astar 2017 Release Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml) Volume: 700 ml           ABV: 52.5%           Age: No Age Statement           Country: Scotland In 2008, on Glenmorangies ceaseless quest for perfection, they created Glenmorangie Astar (Scots Gaelic for “journey”), a single malt entirely matured in bespoke oak casks, which were designed to deliver perfection in the final spirit. Today, in its triumphant return, they renew their homage to the power of wood. The Astar’s extraordinary casks are hewn from hand-selected slow-grown oak trees from the Ozark mountains of Missouri, and meticulously crafted to exacting specifications, to ensure they impart their maximum flavour to the Glenmorangie delicate Highland spirit. Although the silken depths of its first release delighted connoisseurs, such casks are so rare that it has taken years to orchestrate its renaissance. In 2017, The Astar’s triumphant, limited-edition return brings a newfound richness and complexity to this smooth, creamy and long d single malt Official Tasting Notes Nose: Rich aromas of butterscotch and honey are balanced with bright, floral top notes, the freshness of mint, freshly squeezed lemons and a delightful burst of coconut. Taste: Smooth and creamy on the palate, as sumptuously sweet crème-brûlée emerges with tropical fruits, apricots and vanilla custard, hazelnuts in soft buttery fudge, then clove, toasted oak and a hint of cooling menthol. Finish: Honey and almond mingle with coconut ice and aniseed for an enduring smoothness at the finish.  . For adults of legal drinking age. Please drink responsibly.
