Interesting, i have only tried young whisky which has been matured in virgin oak and it did seem it have quite an influence, adding a nice bit of spice. I wonder what this will be like after spending 19 years in virgin oak casks.

£75 for a Glenmorangie 19 year old is not too bad a price considering it is Â£85 for the standard Glenmorangie 18. I have really enjoyed the first 3 bottles in this Private Edition range but i am a bit uncertain of this one with it spending 19 years in virgin oak so i think i will be waiting to see a few reviews first.
