Glenmorangie 12 Year Old The Lasanta: Savoring the Sunset Symphony
Unveiling the Magic of Sunset
In every corner of the world, the setting sun paints a magical panorama of reds, oranges, and purples. Inspired by this breathtaking spectacle, Dr. Bill, our Director of Whisky Creation and a seasoned traveler, crafted the Glenmorangie 12 Year Old The Lasanta. This exquisite whisky is an attempt to capture the essence of a sunset, translating it into a delightful fusion of flavors and aromas.
A Journey from Giraffe-High Stills to Bourbon and Sherry Casks
The Lasanta begins its journey in our giraffe-high stills, producing a delicately fruity spirit. Maturing for 12 years in a symphony of bourbon and sherry casks, this whisky transforms into a mouth-watering odyssey. Rich spiciness and sun-drenched sweetness unfold, radiating notes of raisins, honeycomb, and chocolate-covered hazelnuts, accompanied by gentle cinnamon breezes.
How to Indulge in The Lasanta Experience
Perfect Serve: Enjoy it neat, with a splash of water, or over 2-3 large rocks of ice. Service Temperature: Best served at room temperature. When to Drink: Always ready to be savored. Storage Advice: Store upright in a cool, dark, dry place. Closure: Sealed with a Cap With Cork, ensuring the preservation of its exquisite flavors.
The Global Symphony of Blend and Origin
Lasanta’s unique character is a result of influences from across the globe. After a 10-year maturation in American white-oak, ex-bourbon casks, the blend is transferred to superior casks that once cradled Spanish Oloroso or PX sherry. This infusion imparts just the right level of sweetness, along with enticing textures and aromas.
