This oaky and fruity small-batch release results from one of Dr. Bill's rare experiments with Cognac casks, elegantly winding notes of spice and leather with Glenmorangie's wondrous fruit flavours. Dr. Bill had long imagined finishing Glenmorangie in Cognac casks for a delicious marriage of flavours. While his early experiments were unsuccessful, this 13 year old Glenmorangie Cognac Cask Finish finally brings his dream alive.

Dr Bill, our Director of Whisky Creation, was born with a taste for adventure. And with this single malt he sought to create a whisky as unpredictable as his travels. Quinta Ruban is a whisky journey into the wild- a dark and delectable forest where the wind whistles with gusts of peppermint and dark swirls of chocolate can happen at any moment. In our giraffe-high stills, it begins soft and fruity, then gets darker and deeper as we let it age for 14 years in bourbon casks and port casks from Portugal. The finished whisky is a thicket of voluptuous flavour combinations. Walnut and black pepper. Mandarin orange and melted marshmallow. Dark chocolate bar and peppermint. And, like stepping into a chocolate-minty-orange unknown, the journey is as delicious as the destination.
