Glenmorangie Distillery: Growing age statements with Dawn Psereckis

Step aside! Glenmorangie have been putting age statements UP instead of down. The neck of the stills might be long but the rise in age statements seems unprecedented in todays market. Moet Hennessy Spirits Specialist Dawn Psereckis, fresh from a trip to the distillery will join us with parts of the new age statement range and a couple of recent special bottles along with one from the past. 

The whisky world has seen age statements tumble in the last 10 years, with 18 year old whisky now commanding a huge price if it can be found at all. No age statement whisky has been championed as the way forward and we speak about long aged whisky as though its a relic of the past, which is kind of is (pun intended.)
