Glenmorangie Sonnalta PX Tasting note

February 20, 2011
Why? One of the best flavours in the honey vanilla range that I remember. Think of Ballantine’s Finest, but with a more powerful nose and taste. Also the sherry, that reminded my of Fino, not pedro ximenez is simply delicious.

a bottle of Glenmorangie Sonnalta PX

Sonnalta PX is the newest addition to the Glenmorangie Private Collection, following on from the fantastic Astar. This was named PX for its sherry finish in sweet Pedro Ximénez dessert sherry casks. The word Sonnalta is Gaelic for “Generous”, a fitting title for this luxurious whisky.

Nose (23): Fruits, wine sherry, citrus, wood, honey, vanilla. With water, grapes, sherry, vanilla and honey.
Taste (24): Sherry, wood, vanilla, almonds, nuts, citrus. With water, sweet, honey, vanilla.
Finish (23): Vanilla and honey.
Balance (23):
