GLENMORANGIE 12YO GOLD RUM CASK FINISH - PRICE CRASH

[Deactivated Member]

This Sainsury's exclusive currently has a massive £10 off, meaning that it's £19.99 instead of the normal £29.99.

It's a beautiful malt which, as I recall, Jim Murray rate extremely highly.

Yessir! bought one on Saturday. My gig was next to Sainsbury's in Deal, Kent, so in i went...good Deal!

I have yet to try it though. Bin feeling a bit off the lst few days, and not in the mood, but better now. Maybe tonight...my neighbour's been trying to get me to try a Jura superstition he has, but the timing ain't been right. but I'm "home alone" tonight, and have left him a message saying i have a surprise for him too

Fair exchange is no robbery...

I first spotted it years ago, and like you was impressed by JM's rating it as high as the standard 10, even tho' he admits to being wary of finishes...

I remember liking the 'fiddich Havana finish. I was given a bottle after being hired to play a mysterious gig with a guitarist friend in the heart of London that was very well paid...turned out to be the launch of this whisky! so they threw in a bottle as a bonus, cos they liked us, and my drooling forlornly over the whisky obviously melted their hearts.

JM didn't rate it tho' so...eager anticipation over here for the Glenmo'!!

[Reggaeblues]

PS JM's rating was 94...

How about The Havana Reserve.?

[ccrank.freeserve.co.uk]

Les, you know very well thats already been done and look at the trouble it caused ,you're just being naughty! .Besides ,it has to be in French because that means it's sophisticated and expensive.

[Ganga]

How about The Havana Reserve.?

That would be Reserva De La Habana.

[Reggaeblues]

[vitara7]

I was surprised to see such enthusiasm for the Rum Cask, assuming a large interest such as Glenmorangie wouldn't attract the cultured palates here, or the sages, JM and MJ.
I bought one, of course, my first in memory. The colour immediately caught my eye. I wondered if it would be very mellow. And yes, smooth, too, on tasting.
Some of you seem to be mellow! With names like Ganga and Reggaeblues! I remember I tried to discourage my stoning friends from smoking with me, by providing, I think it was Glenmorangie, and insisting we had that instead.
The cigarette papers and the dope kept coming out, every few minutes!
I just had to give up, and let them get on with it!
But I knew something. Far more pleasant than cannabis, narcotics or whatever, is a dram of fine Scotch!
And Glenmorangie Golden Rum Cask is such a beverage.
