Glenmorangie Signet Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Glenmorangie Signet Single Malt Scotch Whisky is a Whiskey from the Glenmorangie Scotch brand hailing from Scotland.

What is Glenmorangie Signet Single Malt Scotch Whisky?

Glenmorangie Signet stands out among single malts for its unique use of high-roast 'chocolate' malted barley, which imparts rich mocha notes to the whisky. Interestingly, this special malt is so rare and expensive that if Glenmorangie were to produce Signet year-round, it would consume the world's entire supply of this particular barley.

Why do we love Glenmorangie Signet Single Malt Scotch Whisky?

Glenmorangie Signet stands out for its innovative use of high-roast 'chocolate' malted barley, which imparts rich mocha notes to this luxurious single malt. This unique whisky also incorporates some of Glenmorangie's rarest and oldest stocks, aged up to 40 years, creating a complex flavor profile that's unlike any other Scotch on the market.

How do you drink Glenmorangie Signet Single Malt Scotch Whisky?

Glenmorangie Signet is best savored neat or with a few drops of water to unlock its complex flavors, though it can also shine in spirit-forward cocktails that don't overpower its nuanced character. This luxurious whisky is perfect for sipping on cool autumn evenings, paired with rich desserts like dark chocolate truffles or a cheese plate featuring aged Gouda and blue cheese.

Nose: Rich coffee and dark chocolate aromas dominate, accompanied by hints of vanilla, orange zest, and toasted nuts. A subtle smokiness lingers in the background, along with notes of old leather and polished wood.

Palate: Thick and creamy texture with a burst of mocha and espresso flavors. Layers of dark chocolate, candied orange peel, and roasted almonds unfold. Spicy notes of cinnamon and nutmeg emerge, balanced by a touch of honey sweetness and oak tannins.

Finish: Long and warming, with lingering coffee and dark chocolate notes. A gentle smokiness resurfaces, accompanied by dried fruits and a hint of tobacco. The finish leaves a pleasant dryness, with a subtle nuttiness and oaky spice that invites another sip.

Glenmorangie Signet stands out for its unique use of high-roast "chocolate" malted barley, which is typically reserved for brewing stout. This special malt is combined with Glenmorangie's house malt and distilled in the tallest stills in Scotland, then aged in a mix of new and ex-bourbon casks, resulting in a rich, complex whisky with notes of coffee, chocolate, and citrus.

  • Glenmorangie Signet contains a portion of whisky made from a unique "chocolate malt" barley, which is roasted to the point of almost burning—similar to the process used for brewing stout beer. This imparts rich mocha flavors without any actual chocolate added.
  • The distinctive bottle design for Signet features a square decanter with rounded edges, inspired by the shape of ancient Egyptian perfume bottles. Each one is adorned with a hand-pressed metal Signet emblem, making every bottle subtly unique.
  • Despite its rich, dark flavors, Signet doesn't rely on sherry casks for maturation like many other deep-hued whiskies. Instead, it gains its complexity from a blend of Glenmorangie's oldest and rarest stocks, some aged over 35 years, combined with younger whiskies matured in custom-toasted virgin oak casks.
