Mezcal, orange bitters, chocolate

Gary,
It’s good, however I’m not a fan of port cask whiskey. If you enjoy angels envy or similar you will love this.

Richard
Richard,
Smells earthy, leather, with a hint of red apples and citrus. Has a mild bite to the flavor, tastes of chocolate and spices and citrus, has a very mellow finish, no after bite. Love the chocolaty finish that lingers around for a while. This is a very drinkable dram and I wouldn't be opposed to putting a bottle in the bar.
 
Michael
Michael,
Interesting. Can definitely taste the chocolate. Kind of nutty also. Very bold and a lot of other flavors. I don't think I've ever had anything quite like this before. Not sure I like the port finish. I guess I'll have to drink some more before I make that decision.

Juho,
Too sweet for my taste
 
Todd
Todd,
A sedate scotch to me since I tend to favor Islay over Speyside. But this has to be the best scotch by Glenmorangie I've ever had. A very smooth, lots of fruit notes especially orange, with a very nice mouth feel and finish. Definitely a good scotch for some one wanting to get their toes wet. It is a nice price point for the quality.

Adam,
Very dark and rich, definately not an every day drink, but pairs great with a good cigar. Heavy notes of chocolate.
 
Vidir
Vidir,
Very smooth, dark chocolate and orange with obvious hints of port. Aftertaste of oak.
 
Jeff
Jeff,
Really not a bad Scotch. Personally I just don't care much for the Port/Scotch combination.
 
Zane
Zane,
Sweet with a distinctive chocolate finish and a bit of spice. Nose is orange and caramel. A very interesting whisky to sip but not sure if it’s my cup of tea.
 
Mike
Mike,
I usually favor Islay over Speyside, so I’m biased toward stronger flavors, but this is the best Glenmorangie I’ve had, with a rich mouthfeel and delicious finish.

Paul,
Slight notes of chocolate and orange, this is one of my winter warmers. It's smooth, warm and really nicely balanced. It's also a good one to share with inexperienced whisky drinkers.

Super suprise when a friend gifted me a bottle earlier this year. Not a bit like the regular stuff. This is a quality bottle of scotch and one that I will keep coming back to. Highly recommended.

Beautiful Amber red. Delicious wine and chocolate taste with the classic hint of that Glenmorangie delivers. This is what scotch should be. Excellent.
 
Aaron
Aaron,
I like the nectar d'or a bit better, but this is a better value overall.
 
Eric
Eric,
Easy to drink. Dark chocolate, orange, some vanilla and what may be some cherries beyond the expected port notes. Great dram for converting bourbon lovers to scotch. Love this enough to make sure I always have a bottle on hand.

Scotch for bourbon lovers. Nose: brown sugar, very light smoke, vanilla, dried cherries. Tasting Notes: sweet, robust, tart dried cherries. Finish: warm dark chocolate ...warm sweet ending.
 
Keith
Keith,
Love the subtle sweetness that come from the cask aging. Neat or a single cube equally as nice. I find it a great bottle to bridge people into enjoying scotch if they are bourbon folks (or anyone else thinking about trying a scotch)

Others called this intense. I thought it was wonderfully balanced and smooth finish.
 
Corey
Corey,
I had to rate this a little lower because of the strong peaty flavor. I loved the fruit and sweet taste, but I am sensitive to peat, and this was just way too much for me. I se why people enjoy it, but this is not the right scotch for my taste.
