Luxury Scotch Whiskey Seller The Whiskey Place Promotes Its Discounted Collection of Select Glenmorangie

Online, March 13, 2012 (Newswire.com) - The Whiskey Place, a New York-based specialist merchant of high-end scotch whiskey brands, is currently promoting new, limited-time discounts on its collection of Glenmorangie bottles to its audience of connoisseurs and collectors. Available online at http://www.TheWhiskeyPlace.com, the merchant's stock of Glenmorangie single malt scotch includes 11 different coveted products, including its classic 10-year distillation, specially aged 15 and 18 year bottles, and sherry cask-aged Lasanta, among other distillations.

From the Highlands area of Scotland, one of the five major scotch-producing regions within the country, Glenmorangie has distilled high-quality single malt scotch whiskey since 1843, though prior to that date it was known as a brewery. As a particularly large and diverse sector of the country, the Highlands produces a diverse array of single malt scotches, which vary from dry to sweet, with some distillations even bearing a touch of smoke more commonly associated with the Islay region. Today, Glenmorangie is reputed among its Highland peers for having the tallest whiskey stills in Scotland; its water, sourced from the nearby Tarlogie Springs, aids in the creation of a notably pure and clean single malt scotch. A part of the wine and spirits division of Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton, Glenmorangie recently upped its profile in the New York area by being featured at a pairings dinner at celebrity chef Tom Colicchio's award-winning restaurant, Colicchio and Sons.

An excellent introduction to The Whiskey Place's coveted collection of single malt whisky is Glenmorangie's 10 year distillation, now available through the retailer for as low as $37.99 per bottle. After spending 10 years in bourbon casks, the whiskey reveals a mellow but mature character. With a light, non-viscous body, the golden-hued distillation carries hints of oak and honey before fading into a long, round finish with a lingering whisper of sugar. Glenmorangie's 10 year single malt scotch whisky is an ideal introduction to the distiller's product range, for neophytes and connoisseurs alike.

For those searching for a single malt scotch whiskey with a more complex and aged character, Glenmorangie's 18 year scotch is now being sold by The Whiskey Place for as low as $94.99 per bottle of the sought-after distillation. An additional eight years of barrel aging have given it a full reddish amber tone that hints at its deeper flavor profile. With a palate that elegantly balances creamy sweetness and herbal notes, the single malt whiskey boasts a smooth, medium body with an aromatic finish that tends towards oak and nut flavors.

Glenmorangie also produces single malt scotch that has been aged in casks other than traditional bourbon barrels. Included in The Whiskey Place's collection is Glenmorangie's 12 year Quinta Ruban, which is extra matured in port casks and sold for as low as $47.49. The port imparts a pronounced fruity character to the single malt whisky, tempered by a sweet butterscotch core and a very smooth, soporific finish. Also included in the inventory is Glenmorangie's 12 year Lasanta, aged in sherry casks, likewise now discounted to as little as $47.49 per bottle.
