Scotland 2013 - Day 3 - Glenmorangie Cask Masters
Before shoving off to the local pub for a few pints, we sat in the Glenmorangie house dining room to learn about the new Cask Master series. GlenMo is going to be auditioning three new whiskies for their next private edition release – three whiskies that the public will get to decide upon via online vote.
There are three cask-finished selections to choose from. We should be one of the American polling destinations if all goes as planned, meaning you can come to the store, taste for free, and then make your decision. The whiskies are Burgundy, Bordeaux, and Manzanilla sherry finished. Our choice was quite easy. Manzanilla all the way. But that's just us speaking. You'll have your chance to vote later this year, I believe.
