Glenmorangie Sonnalta PX Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky 46.0% Vol. - the award winning whisky of the limited Glenmorangie Private Edition of a great Glenmorangie Highland Single Malt!
The Glenmorangie Sonnalta PX Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky is the second edition in the series of the Glenmorangie Private Collection, which is particularly popular among connoisseurs and collectors and presents rare and limited releases of Glenmorangie. Sonnalta is the Gaelic translation of the English term generous. Having spent 10 long years maturing in American white oak casks this whisky is transferred into Spanish ex-Pedro Ximenez (PX) casks for its final two years of extra-maturation. Often described as the king of sherry casks this rare wood was brought back from Jerez in Spain by the head of whisky creation Dr Bill Lumsden. Safely back in Tain it can then begin to weave its magic into Glenmorangie Sonnalta PX, adding the famous sweetness and intensity of the cask s previous resident. Glenmorangie Sonnalta PX is the first release in our prestigious Private Edition range: carefully selected, limited edition whiskies chosen from the cabinet of curiosities of Dr Bill Lumsden, head of our whisky creation team.
