An excellent occasional tipple in winter. Glenmorangie are the masters of maturing in oak barrels which previously held other alcoholic beverages. They even mature in barrels that once held Sauternes. This Lasanta spent ten years maturing in American white oak ex-Bourbon casks before being matured for a further 2 years in Oloroso and PX Sherry casks from Jerez in Spain. This gives this single malt Scotch a sweet smoky slightly burnt nuance.

Tawny color. Cherries, red berries, plums, almond, coconut, malt, vanilla, and dry, integrated tannins. Honey, pipe tobacco, and dried tea as well. A nicely balanced single malt.

Nice residual sweetness, be good with a fat stogie.

Working my way through the sample pack. Sherry cask aging just seems too much in this case.
