Glenmorangie — Glenmorangie's most distinctive and unusual expression, made with a portion of 'chocolate malt' barley — roasted at high temperature to coffee-like intensity — alongside the standard barley used in the rest of the range, producing a depth of roasted grain character completely absent from every other Glenmorangie expression.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChocolate malt barley is roasted at temperatures typically used in coffee and cocoa processing — the heat produces bitter chocolate, espresso, and dark toffee compounds in the malt that carry through distillation into the new make spirit. Applied to Glenmorangie's naturally delicate, floral spirit base — produced by those famously tall stills — the chocolate malt creates a paradox: a whisky that is simultaneously light and dark, delicate and intense.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe oldest and rarest casks in the Glenmorangie warehouses are selected for Signet maturation, contributing the additional complexity that the unusual malt character requires to reach equilibrium.
