After an initial maturation in American white oak ex-bourbon barrels, the Companta was matured in 60% Burgundy wine casks from Clos de Tart and 40% Rhône Valley casks that previously held Rasteau, sourced by Glenmorangie's Director of Distilling, Dr. Bill Lumsden. The result is an exceedingly well made cherry red, non chill-filtered single malt that fits perfectly into the continuing range of experimental releases from Glenmorangie.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eGlenmorangie Companta Private Edition Single Malt Scotch Whisky Tasting Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNose:\u003c\/b\u003e Heady, fruity nose with notes of chocolate and spice.
