    One for the "spew your guts out, just thinking about it" file:
    
    A 1975 Glenmorangie finished in port wine barrels.
    
    I rather like it.

    The Macallan is aged in used sherry barrels.

    Dawn,
    
    Come out and visit, or at least send out your Glenmorange (sp) ;-)
    
    I do know an appreciative audience, who will treat this with the proper
    reverence it deserves.

Re: 142:

I did not know that, sir!

Re: Glenmorangie in general

I also recently discovered that their generic 10 year malt is finished in
Bourbon barrels.  Huh.

Re: 143:

I just may do that some day.  I've got quite the collection at home.
794.145Bourbon, Sherry, Port, MadeiraZEKE::palium.zko.dec.com::stoddardInterdum vincit draco!Thu Feb 13 1997 12:5114
RE .144:

	Most scotch is finished in bourbon barrels.  By law bourbon
	barrels can't be reused to make bourbon, so they're sold to
	scotch distillers.  Some high-end single malts are aged in
	port, sherry or madiera barrels.  

	On another subject, I tried some 15 year old Glen Keith
	the other day at the Castle Restaurant in Leicester, MA.
	Very nice light highland.  Fairly dry.  Very smooth.

	Have a GREAT day!
	Pete

794.146BULEAN::BANKSOrthogonality is your friendThu Feb 13 1997 14:135
Thank you for the education; I did not know that.

Yes, I medium high end scotch that I got (aged in port barrels) is really
quite nice.  The madiera stuff I sampled at the liquor store was just too
weird, though.
