Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Glenmorangie’s Quinta Ruban replaced the old Port Wood Finish expression a couple of years ago. Bottled at a higher strength, enhaning the extra grapey sweetness the old expression was once famous for.

Producer’s Tasting Notes
Aroma: One sniff and you’re instantly transported to a traditional Christmas dinner party, in a candle-lit dining room with the aroma of just-peeled mandarin oranges and Belgian chocolate mint crisps. Walnut shells have been thrown at the roaring fire where their scent mixes with the lingering aroma of nutmeg from the Christmas pudding and the warm, musky scent of sandalwood that emanates from the wood-panelled room
Now add a splash of water for the party to move to the sitting room where icing sugar-dusted pink cubes of rose-scented Turkish Delight take a seat on a silver tray next to outdated, mint fondants, crystallised orange segments and candied peel. On a side table, a vase of honeysuckle and geranium lends a clear, aromatic pungency to the air
Taste: A caress of silk velvet at the tongue gives way to a swathe of wealthy, dark chocolate-enrobed walnuts leaving in their wake the lemony-rose jelly texture of Turkish delight. Then sugar-coated crystallised orange segments emerge, countered by crisp mint chocolate, adding a chiffon like texture
Finish: Lingering memories of dark minty chocolate with the effervescence of orange
Founded in 1843 in the Royal Burgh of Tain, in the far north of Scotland, Glenmorangie is Scotland’s favourite single malt scotch whisky
The connoisseur on the lookout for a new whisky expression can be captivated by the 12-year-old single-malt Quinta Ruban – dark and intense, this extra-matured whisky is one to savour
After 10 years maturing in American white-oak, ex-bourbon casks, Quinta Ruban is transferred into specially selected ruby port casks from Portugal’s fine quintas -Glenmorangie Quinta Ruban develps into a voluptuous spirit with its characteristic contrasts – notes of exotic fruit and oranges and a complex texture
Mint chocolate and walnuts envelop the palate like velvet, laying the foundations for rose, Turkish delight and sweet Seville oranges.
Enjoy neat, with slightly water or 2-3 large rocks of ice
