Glenmorangie The Quinta Ruban 14 Year Old Scotch Whisky
Glenmorangie The Quinta Ruban 14 Year Old Scotch Whisky is a 750mL Highland single malt bottled at 46% ABV (92 proof), aged 14 years in total — first in bourbon casks, then finished in ruby port casks (port pipes) from the Quintas, the wine estates of Portugal. "Ruban" is Gaelic for ruby, a nod to the port casks that give this whisky its dark, voluptuous character. It is bottled non-chill-filtered and is available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor.

The Port-Finished Glenmorangie, Grown Up
The Quinta Ruban is the darkest, richest expression in Glenmorangie's extra-matured range. In 2019 the house raised it from 12 to 14 years old, deepening the interplay between the bourbon-cask vanilla base and the ruby port finish without changing the recipe's identity. Distilled in Glenmorangie's famously tall stills at Tain, it remains the definitive port-finished single malt in its class.

Tasting Notes
Per the distillery's current notes: a dark, voluptuous combination of walnut and black pepper, mandarin orange and melted marshmallow, and dark chocolate with peppermint.
