Glenmorangie Lasanta 12
"Lasanta" is Gaelic for "warmth and passion”. It is one of the core expressions in the Extra Matured range for The Glenmorangie. This single malt spends its first 10 years in American oak ex-bourbon barrels. After that initial maturation, it finishes its aging in former oloroso and Pedro Ximenez sherry butts. The result is luxe and rich, a fine after-dinner sipper. Allow a little time for the aroma to emerge, and a splash of water for maximum flavor. The reward is a thick caramel aroma and flavor, with mouthwatering spicy notes of clove, cassia bark and a hint of orange peel.
