If you are looking for a sweet, rich and delicate single malt, look no further than the Glenmorangie Nectar D'Or.

Finished in a Sauternes cask, the Nectar D'Or contains heavy notes of honey and cereal. The cask finish delivers a rich and viscous mouth feel. Bottled at 92 proof, this is a beautiful sipper neat as well as a sweet and complex scotch for a cocktail.

Glenmorangie is a distillery based in the Highland region of Scotland. It was founded in 1843, and has been producing single malt scotch whisky ever since. The Nectar d’Or (which means “golden nectar”- I knew I’d be able to use my language degrees in these reviews somehow) is a 12 year old whisky that was aged first in ex-bourbon barrels, then finished in Sauternes casks. These casks are from the south of France, in the Graves section of Bordeaux. They were originally used to make sweet white wine, so they give a beautiful sweetness and desert-like profile to the whisky.
