Top reviews for Glenmorangie Nectar D'Or:

— Nectar D'Or is likely my favorite scotch I have had the opportunity to enjoy. I'm not a fan of peaty scotches so I love that the caramel and fruit notes take over. A very light splash of water gives it an ultra-smooth finish.

— Spicy and sweet, long finish. Also a visual experience as probably the best looking whisky I own, bottle and case both.

— Expensive, but worth the price in my opinion.

A mellow Scotch with undertones of melon and caramel balanced with traditional notes of spice and smoke. A very sippable Scotch neat, reminiscent of a summer evening.

Lot of flavor to work through. Every time I drink it I am experiencing different things.
 
Dave
Dave,
It's on the sweeter side with less peat. Caramel, toffee, apricot. It's almost as good as the 18 year old Glenmorangie, but more affordable.

Very good! Great scotch to start with if you have not tried Scotch before.

Just wonderful.
 
Chris
Chris,
The Sauterne sweetness coats the tongue. While the sweetness is present, isn't saccharine. This isn't the Shirley Temple of scotches. The flavor is complex with an unbelievable long finish. This has become one of my favorite single malts.
 
Ken
Ken,
Sweet, smooth and mellow. A few drops of water opens the flavor flow of vanilla, honey and oak. Light on the tongue, short on the finish, goes down easy.

Sotirios,
This topped my bar. Unbelievably easy to enjoy. The heat is low on the spiral in my opinion, so the flavor is still there when you start to warm up in your core. Another awesome find. My home bar after 13 months is packed with awesome spirits. And this one is the one I’ll recommend to beginners and experts alike.

Jonathan,
This is 100% my favorite Scotch. It was the first scotch I could get my wife to drink neat. This is a VERY easy drinking scotch that is light on the peat. If you're looking for a smokey scotch you should look elsewhere. If you're looking for vanilla, butterscotch, toffee, and a smooth whiskey finish - this is your scotch!
 
Ron
Ron,
Needs at least 3 drops of water. Not as good as the 15 yr Cadboll Estate 15 year.
 
David
David,
Very good flavor with a good spicy aftertaste
 
Brian
Brian,
Great sipping over ice. Nice warmth and spice upfront followed up with a bit of sweet to mellow it over and finished off with good a Flaviar left on the palate. Will be a repeat in our home stockpile.

Eric,
Gentler than Quinta Ruban or Lasanta, of course, but I loved the candy quality of this bottle. Maybe not complex enough for me to pay over $100, but any less and I'm in.

Ted,
Very good. Notes of vanilla/honey more on the smooth side than other Scotches out there. Is in my rotation to buy when running low
 
Kent
Kent,
very smooth, delicate seems to be a good description. This is very enjoyable dram, but it does not seem as complex or interesting as the other Glenmorangie's I have been drinking. I like it but will probably not buy again.

Smooth and excellent!

I love the smoothness and the full flavor.

Sophian,
The one that introduced me to Sauterns-finished malts. Still has a place in my heart, although I have found better tasting sweet wine finished drams. Slightly spicy at times, but overall delicate and soft and well rounded. The sweetness is about 3 on a 5-point scale, short finish. Wouldn't reject one if I am offered! But probably will not secure another bottle. Sorry my love!
 
Gary
Gary,
Excellent! The original is a good scotch, however this takes it to the next level. It’s got a nice oak taste with a sweet and fruity finish. Highly recommended.

Richard,
Smells overtly sweet, like port wine. I can smell caramel, a hint of honey, and whiff of mint. An occasional waft of peat creeps in as well. Tastes immediately sweet, with a mid point burn, and mild finish with a strong leathery taste. There is a cinnamon and spice after taste that lingers for quite some time. Finally finishes with a delicious two stroke smoke goodbye; like a delicious smokey coffee. Second taste is of pepper and crackers. The leathery and smokey finish is still there. This is a very drinkable scotch. I wouldn't mind having a bottle in my bar, although I prefer a bit more sherry sweet to my scotches.
 
Michael
Michael,
that's a nice dram. honey sweet with a kick on the end

Jon,
Unique and tasty, flavour profile details are spot on
 
Jay
Jay,
Oh my. The Nectar D’Or may have just become my new favorite. From the first smell and taste, I was impressed. The aroma hints at citrus without being overly fruity. The texture engulfs the entire palette with a slightly “thicker” sensation, even when a bit of water is added. As for taste? Spectacular. The top note for me was the honey and zest. Combining the three elements brought to mind a caramel of sorts-though I didn’t taste it directly. Definitely worth checking out!

Loved it. Especially the sauterne cask.
 
Logan
Logan,
Fruits reign supreme. Almost no bitterness or smoke, goes down incredibly smooth. Best for those that are not big into smoke or peat.
 
Aaron
Aaron,
This is the scotch that really got me into scotch. My preferences have moved more towards smoke and peat, but this still remains one of my favorites.
 
Eric
Eric,
More than just a desert dram. Honey, apricots, vanilla, dried fruits and a hint of orange zest. A bit of spice on the medium finish to remind you its scotch and balance the sweetness.
 
Eduardo
Eduardo,
Nice and smooth, very friendly with the tongue. Vanilla and honey aroma with some dried fruits, orange zest and a bit of pepper. In the mouth a bit sweet with peppery sensation and a long and pleasant aftertaste.
 
BRANDON
BRANDON,
Extremely drinkable. The perfect amount of sweetness while also having the slight whiskey burn.
 
Ilya
Ilya,
Мягкий и очень приятный виски с сладковатыми полутонами. Чувствуются фрукты и мед. Превосходный выбор для знакомства людей с миром виски.
