Glenmorangie whisky

Glenmorangie is a Highland single malt made near Tain, on the Dornoch Firth, where a farm brewery became a distillery in 1843. It is owned by The Glenmorangie Company, part of Moët Hennessy, which also owns Ardbeg. The name is pronounced glen-MOR-an-jee, and the house style is usually unpeated, with most of the range starting in ex-bourbon casks.

The Original 12 Year Old (40% ABV, £39.00 at The Whisky Shop) is the core bottling. Three finished versions follow it: Lasanta (43% ABV, £47.95 at Hard To Find Whisky) in sherry casks, the 14 Year Old Quinta Ruban (46% ABV, £51.00 at The Whisky Shop) in port casks, and the 16 Year Old Nectar (46% ABV, £68.69 at Master of Malt) in Sauternes casks. Signet and the limited releases sit above them; a similar name is not necessarily the same whisky, so check the age and edition before comparing.

Before comparing a hammer price with a shop price, add the fees: buying whisky at auction vs retail works through them. Auction medians for many brands have fallen since their 2021 and 2022 peaks, as what 1.6 million auction lots show about whisky prices sets out.

What is the difference between Lasanta, Quinta Ruban and Nectar d'Or?
Glenmorangie says all three start as whisky matured in ex-bourbon casks. It then finishes Lasanta in sherry casks, Quinta Ruban in port casks and Nectar d’Or in Sauternes casks. The distinction is the finishing cask, not a different distillery. See our cask finish whisky page for similar bottlings.
Where is Glenmorangie made?
Near Tain in Ross-shire, on the southern shore of the Dornoch Firth in the northern Highlands. A brewery built on Morangie Farm in 1730 became the distillery in 1843, and its whisky is a Highland single malt under the Scotch Whisky Regulations 2009. See Glenmorangie on Whiskipedia.
