Glenmorangie 1993 Ealanta Drinks by the Dram Mini 3cl

One of the world's best selling old single malts Glemorangie's spirit flows from Scotland's tallest stills, over 16 feet tall for those that are counting. Over the years Bill Lumsden has been at the forefront of research into the influence of the cask on whisky and as such Glenmorangie are the leading exponents of whisky 'finishes', be that sherry, wine or virgin oak. The distillery selects its wood from the Mark Twain forest in the Ozark mountains and ensures that the wood is air dried rather than kilned.

Jim Murray’s Whisky Bible 2014 has named the virgin-oak-matured Glenmorangie Ealanta as the best whisky in the world.

Murray described the limited edition single malt Scotch as “borderline perfection” with “one of the longest finishes of any Scotch this year”.

Glenmorangie Ealanta is the fourth annual release in their Private Edition range.

Scots Gaelic for 'skilled and ingenious', Ealanta is 19 years old, fully matured in virgin American white oak casks with a provenance that stretches all the way to the mountains of Missouri and the Mark Twain National Forest.
