The Glenmorangie Description

Bottling the Sunset

In every corner of the world, the setting of the sun is magical, mused Dr Bill, our Director of Whisky Creation and an inveterate traveller.

This whisky is Dr Bill’s attempt to bottle the magic of sunset, with its endless horizon of reds, oranges and purples.

The Lasanta begins with our giraffe-high stills, which yield a deliciously delicate and fruity spirit. Next, we mature it in bourbon and sherry casks for 12 years, transforming it into a mouth-watering odyssey bursting with rich spiciness and sun-drenched sweetness.

It radiates with raisins, honeycomb and chocolate-covered hazelnuts lightened by cinnamon breezes.

Each time you watch the sunset, you see something different – this is how it is to drink Lasanta.

Blend and Origin

Influences from across the globe combine to create Lasanta. After a 10-year maturation process in American white-oak, ex-bourbon casks, the blend is transferred to superior casks that once contained Spanish Oloroso or PX sherry. Infusing the single malt with just the right level of sweetness, and enticing textures and aromas.

Tasting Notes

If you could sip a sunset, it would taste like The Lasanta, a mouthwatering odyssey bursting with rich spiciness and sundrenched sweetness.

Appearance: A light russet.

Nose: Warm spices mingle with chocolate-covered raisins, honeycomb and caramel toffee.

Palate: Sherry-flavoured sultanas, orange segments, walnuts and butterscotch combine to create complex warm spices.

Finish :Long and satisfying, with spiced orange and chocolate.

Wine Enthusiast: 90-95 Points

"Aged in Bourbon casks for 10 years, then “extra matured” for two years in Oloroso Sherry casks. The result is luxe and rich, a fine after-dinner sipper. Allow a little time for the aroma to emerge, and a splash of water for maximum flavor. The reward is a thick caramel aroma and flavor, with mouthwatering spicy notes of clove, cassia bark and a hint of orange peel."
