Glenmorangie Tale of Winter (750ml)

A Tale of Winter is the 2nd release of their “A Tale of…” Limited Edition releases.  I’m doing this backwards by reviewing this one first, but it has been subarctic temperatures in the Northeast and what better time to crack a bottle named after Winter than when you are shivering…

A Tale of Winter is a non-age statement whisky that was finished in Marsala wine casks from Sicily.  According to Glenmorangie, it has a 13 year old base (why not label it as such?) that is supposed to capture the feeling of being snugly in front of a fire and give you all the flavors that one associates with winter (cocoa, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, reindeer laughter, etc.).

ABV: 46%
