Glenmorangie The Lasanta 15 Year Aged Single Malt Scotch

Glenmorangie The Lasanta 15 Years Old is a premium Highland single malt Scotch whisky that serves as the official, upgraded replacement for the brand's popular 12-year-old expression. Developed by Director of Whisky Creation Dr. Bill Lumsden and Master Blender Gillian Macdonald, this expression features a refined recipe and three additional years of aging to maximize rich complexity. The name Lasanta translates to "warmth and passion" in Gaelic, celebrating its deep Spanish sherry cask influence. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] Production & Maturation Process The Spirit: Distilled in Glenmorangie's signature giraffe-high stills, which produce a uniquely light, elegant, and fruity base distillate. Double Cask Aging: The whisky matures for an initial 10 years in American white oak ex-bourbon barrels, establishing a bedrock of smooth vanilla and honey notes. Sherry Finishing: It is then transferred to hand-selected Spanish Oloroso Sherry casks for a substantial 5-year finishing period, imparting deep spice and dried fruit characteristics. Bottling Specs: It is bottled at 43% ABV (86 proof) and remains non-chill filtered to preserve its velvety, full-bodied mouthfeel
