Glenmorangie The Quinta Ruban 14 Year Old is the darkest and most intense expression in Glenmorangie’s core range. Initially matured in American white oak bourbon casks, it is then extra-matured in ruby port casks sourced from selected Quintas (wine estates) in Portugal. This additional maturation creates a voluptuous whisky with a rich interplay of soft and dry aromas and a striking contrast of silky, fresh, and vibrant textures.
