Glenmorangie Allta Private Edition No.10 at Nickolls & Perks – Scotch Whisky News
GLENMORANGIE ALLTA PRIVATE EDITION NO.10
Glenmorangie Allta is the 10th anniversary release of the “Private Edition” series that has seen the distillery pushing the boundaries in terms of cask and ingredients used to produce whisky. The Allta meaning “Wild” in Gaelic sees a bespoke yeast strain found on local Cadboll barley being utilised for the first time to produce a fragrant spirit, which has been matured in ex-Bourbon barrels to highlight its fruity character and lend a rich creaminess to the finished whisky.
TASTING NOTES FROM THE PRODUCER

Rounded, with biscuity, yeasty tones. Gentle floral notes of carnations and Parma violets, baking bread, very gentle vanilla, soft raisins and sweet mandarin orange.
Palate:
A crisp citrus bite to the mouthfeel. Butter candy, creamy vanilla, orange syrup with slightly yeasty background. Gentle mint, the tiniest hint of sweet chilli and delicate, dancing, floral notes.

Long and earthy with hints of bittersweet orange and peppermint.
