The story of Glenmorangie 12YO Lasanta 700m

Lasanta is Glenmorangie's sherry cask whisky. It began in the 1990s with no age on the bottle, has carried a 12 year statement since 2010, and took the Lasanta name in the 2004 relabelling of the distillery's wood finishes.

Glenmorangie, at Tain in the Highlands, has belonged to Moët Hennessy, part of LVMH, since the Macdonald family sold it in 2004.

Lasanta is matured in bourbon and sherry casks and bottled at 43 per cent. The brand describes it as rich in spice with a sun soaked sweetness. Raisins, honeycomb and chocolate covered hazelnuts lead, lightened by cinnamon.

Glenmorangie suggests pouring it at room temperature, on its own, with a little water, or over two or three large rocks of ice. The hazelnut and raisin notes make dark chocolate an obvious companion, or a handful of roasted nuts, and the sweetness stands up to a stirred Old Fashioned made with a dash of orange bitters.
