About This Whiskey

The name Quinta Ruban is derived from the Portuguese word "Quinta", which refers to a vineyard or estate, and "Ruban", meaning ruby, alluding to the rich, deep red hue imparted by the port casks. This expression is designed to be a bold and intense version of Glenmorangie's classic style, with the port finish adding layers of complexity and depth. At 46% ABV, Quinta Ruban offers a slightly stronger, more vibrant flavor profile compared to other expressions in Glenmorangie's range.

Tasting Notes

NOSE: On the nose, Glenmorangie Quinta Ruban is rich and inviting. There is an immediate burst of dark chocolate and sweet dried fruits, particularly blackberry, cherry, and figs, all enhanced by the port influence. The classic Glenmorangie character of vanilla and honey is still present, but it is complemented by more complex, spiced aromas like nutmeg, cloves, and a hint of orange zest. A touch of oak and toasted nuts adds depth, while a subtle earthy and herbal note rounds out the aromatic profile.
TASTE: On the palate, Quinta Ruban 14 Year Old is full-bodied and rich, with a smooth texture and a slightly velvety mouthfeel. The sweetness of the port cask finish comes through with flavors of dark fruits such as raspberries, blackcurrant, and cherry, all coated in a layer of dark chocolate. The whisky has a lovely, warming spice character, with cinnamon, clove, and ginger adding complexity. The underlying flavors of vanilla and honey from the bourbon cask maturation are still present, giving it a rounded sweetness that balances the more intense port and spice elements. There’s also a slight nuttiness, reminiscent of almonds or hazelnuts, which adds a nice contrast to the fruity and chocolatey notes. The influence of the port casks gives the whisky an almost wine-like richness, which melds beautifully with Glenmorangie’s signature creamy mouthfeel.
FINISH: The finish is long and satisfying, with the rich flavors lingering on the palate. Dark chocolate and dried fruits continue to echo, while the spices fade slowly, leaving a lingering warmth. The port influence is felt throughout, contributing to a smooth yet bold finish with a slightly dry, tannic edge from the port casks. The finish is complex, with oak and a hint of tobacco rounding out the experience.
