Love me some sitetrissy flavor
The first time I had Glenmorangie I was on a cruise ship heading to Alaska. Now when I drink it, I'm taken back to the sea again in my memories. It will always be very special to me.
First time I had it was in a hot dirty porterpotty. Ahh takes me back every time 👌
Yes, it has a certain quality of generating nostalgia, I'm not sure why but this is a uniquely pleasant experience.
Came here for pronunciation of Glenmorangie lol. Already knew it tasted great!
Same! My brother and I pronounce it differently so we had to call in the expert
Hahahahaha same
After drinking it for years, I realized I hadnt actually heard it pronounced. I had a completely different emphasis on the syllables. Language is wild.
Crying this is me hahahahaha
This is now my favorite single malt, fruity and floral. I could not wait to try it. I knew it would be delicious.
I haven't tried a lot of single malts due to the price tag but after enjoying a few and declaring them to be wonderful, I tried Glenmorangie and declared it to be all I need in a single. Just beautiful!

Does anyone else want to see Horst and Hickok45 shooting and drinking whisky together?
This is an outstanding idea haha.
XD
Would that be wise?
I love the noises while tasting!
I have heard many a review of great whiskeys from other channels but now that I have come here I am here for good.
I drank this for the first time a few weeks ago at a wedding reception in Dornoch. Back home in Tennessee now, and just today I bought a bottle. Looking forward to enjoying it.
So funny he's always making those hand gesture while tasting xD
This whisky is fabulous I love drinking it every-time!
Just had a good "sip" of my own. Smooth and no bitterness. Scent of vanilla and citrus. "Cheers."
One of the best single malt taste as I am an Indian Punjabi and for me it taste like Pure butter that comes from buttermilk ( called LASSI drink ) made in home ( not in factory)
Very smooth and buttery taste 👅
Advice is that drink it neat not with water or any other liquid
Thank you for your video. I was trying it for the first time while watching. It was like we were in a room together. I told me friend is super smooth then you said it's very smooth we laughed! I give this scotch 5 out of 5 rating. The balance of taste and smoothness for a single malt is lovely. I will say the smoothness allows me to actually taste all the flavors.
Pleasure to watch this while having it in the hand
The D
Is the microphone in his mouth?
seriously. makes his videos unwatchable. like watching someone chew with their mouth open
wtf...
I'm actually getting ASMR from him swishing it around in his mouth.
Just above his head probs mate
Freak
My favorite part is when he said "blah blah blah...here we go"...Ol' Horst was ready for that dram.
Paid $35 in US for 750ml that came in a gift box with a weighted whiskey glass and a small 12 year old bottle. My nose and palate is not as sophisticated but I liked it better when I added an ice cube. Satisfied customer.
Great whisky, can't ever go wrong with this one.
I love this guys reviews. It would be interesting for Horst to review the Glenmorangie 19 years old. I have a bottle and it is my favourite now.
Yeah, I have olso a bottle of the glenmorganie 19 I have them all bud I never saw my favorite guy do review about the glenmorganie 19 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I like this scotch. Might be too smooth and subtle for some though. The finish is really quite lovely and surprisingly complex.
Great video. Just found it. By far this is my favorite Scotch
Jumping today from Talisker Storm to this. Let’s see how it compares. Thanks for the video
Man them mouth sounds gets me in these videos!
Word!
Good solid distillery expression. I don't go out of my way for any glenmorangie. Solid whisky, I just like deeper complexity.
A very good professional presentation. I am viewing you for the first time. Going to follow you. I am a connoisseur of various brands of Single malts. BTW, Glenmorongie and variants are one of my favourites. Look forward to more from you.
In ur opinion sir, which is more interesting and memorable as compared to glenfiddich 12?
I love Horst.
Mate, just FYI, it's pronounced 'sit-rus' but I prefer your way.
Is this one worth have in my collection at home?
Cheers! Great review!
I started loving this whiskey after giving up coffee. For some reason coffee is playing with my taste buds.
Trying this whisky for the first time today, it is a nice dram, but nothing beats the Lagavulin for me.
This guy is hysterical. Worth watching
Glenmorangie = slightly underrated, my favourite Single malt Scotch!
18 years old Extremely Rare edition, i recommend buying.
Great video 👍
Glenmorangie best one!
Danke, ich habe gerade eine Flasche geschenkt bekommen, jetzt weiß ich worauf ich mich einlasse.
I tried this at a restaurant the other night...so glad i did. for the money it is hard to find a better drink. IMO
not sure I have tried original. but my favourite Glenmorangie is the Lastana.
..... then you mean you like Lastana, so far.
Sir you need ambient noise.... anything other your digestive juices
My #1 , best flavor for price
Can this drink be left in the freezer? Or fridge? Is it served cold? Or room temperature?
Whisky is best stored in a cool location out of direct light. Refrigerating or placing it in the freezer will affect the taste while it's too cold and there's no benefit to storing it that way. It should be served room-temperature or with whisky stones or ice if you want to cool and or dilute it.
I like it. It's not the best tasting stuff I've ever had but it's really great for the price. Can get the big 1.75 bottle around here for about $60. This is my go-to home drinking scotch.
I would find Glenmo and Macallen the best value single malt Scotch. Macallen 12 tastes slightly better than Glenno 10. Glenmo 10 has too much fruity taste to itZ
Consider yourself lucky... a regular 0.7 bottle costs €50 (~$55) here in Ireland.
@@glennhooper8867 whoa! that's crazy.
Horst Rocks!
I like it
To me it's like drinking the juice from a can/jar of fruit cocktail
great malt whisky
doug bulldog glenfiddich 18 yr
I have only had this once maybe twice before, so should I buy again myself If I like good whisky or it is like throwing my money out the window?
@ℂ'𝕖𝕤𝕥 𝕊𝕚 𝔹𝕠𝕟! Im not a fan of mixing whisky over all, i like to drink it with a drop of cold water just to get more flavour
when i tried it it felt like biting a sugarcane absolutely the same taste as a sugarcane, nice one
at 43% here in the USA it's a decent purchase, but I think the price is a bit inflated compared to some of the other quality, younger whiskies we have (e.g., Speyburn 10 is only a bit over $25). Glenmorangie 10 here is nearly $50 -- not worth it! Considering the Lasanta and Quinta Ruban are only $10 more, they're worth the extra bit.
First whisky in 25 years of drinking I could pallet. Had half a bottle and really enjoyed it. Woke up with not much of a hangover BAR a chronic headache. Took aspirin and was fine but very strange hangover it was migraine strength headache. Is that a common thing with whisky? Like I said no other hangover effects bar that monster headache.
Dude half a bottle is not the amount you should be drinking. A whiskey is server as 1,5 ounce or 45 ml pours and i never have more than 2 or 3 of em. This isnt like vodka or something to drink half a bottle to get pissed.
@@pyotrilyichtchaikovsky3733 ah. I see the error of my ways 😂 thanks.
This guy is my neekwa I love him he's the beez knees
This is sooooo unintentional asmr 😍
interesting that he says no vanilla... i get lots of vanilla...
Wanilla
Everytime i see horst i think of the movie "hostel".
Lmao
Scary AF!
Every time I hear him I think of Inglorious Basterds.
Can anyone identify/name the glass Horst uses in this video?
+Uberwrensch It's their own design, they have a video of it somewhere if you browse them.
+ArtMorte Will do. Thanks for taking the time to reply.
There is a new whisky glass on Kickstarter that looks like it's going to be better than the glencairn. Also, macallan teamed up with Lalique to make a similar looking glass.
Looks like a normal snifter glass to me.
I will name the glass, Manfred.
I've just bought it today. It's really smooth but honestly i feel the oak tunes too much.
Is he using it as mouth wash
I put this video before opening Glenmorangie bottle so I could follow the nosing and taste profile side by side.
Horst, or anyone else. Is it possible (I know this would never happen, it's just a theoretical question) but can scotch distilleries add any artificial coloring to their scotch? Like, if they wanted blue scotch, to commemorate Scotland or something, could they make that legally? Or can it only be e150a? And can you explain if distilleries that use the same exact barrels let's say, and exact ingredients, is it just barometric pressure and weather that make them different colors?
Research I've done has said only E150a is allowed as coloring.
+The Joy Of Piping okay perfect, this is what I wanted to know. I wasn't actually serious about blue scotch, it was just an extreme example. But then again we all drink green beer a certain day of the year haha
+UNC Tarheels lol, you got me there. I hit downtown Raleigh like I do every year and must've had a gallon of Guinness instead of the green beer for once!
I wouldn't roll with blue whisky either, but each manufacturer usually states whether it's been added or not. Some darker colors come from the casks they finish in like Glenmorangie Quinta Ruban.
+The Joy Of Piping Horst specifically says that an EU law says that every ingredient and color (Farbstoff) has to be on the label, it sucks that they can still not put this on the labels and not be punished for it. And then compass box puts their ingredients and the whisky makers in their blends available (what distillery, year, and percentage, and abv) and they get in trouble. Are you a native of NC? Teaser alert, I graduated from UNC haha
+UNC Tarheels it's a bit of a pain not knowing from the bottle whether or not they've added coloring, but it doesn't affect flavor, at least not in my opinion.
I'm not a native, but I've been in Raleigh a few years and I love it here.
The name gave me a little hint haha.
At 40 dollars for 750ml this is a steal.

Why not a full bottle? The most popular scotch for Scotsmen isn’t good enough?
He just wants to taste a little glass and not have to open bigger bottles if possible for him. Just think of how many whisky bottles he’s opened in his life.. ha!
Why add colour to a single malt?
Shane54528 also for marketing. Many people associate darker whiskey with better whiskey. Which is not the case
It's actually really light color in the glass even with color added.
There's no colour added to Glenmorangie 10. I was drinking some with Bill Lumsden the other day and he said it's natural colour. Glenmorangie also uses casks for a maximum of 2 times which keeps the quality high.
I like Horst... but this review was sub-par...
The Original may not be any sort of challenge to Scotch "snobs"... but being the best seller in Scotland... to me is a very BIG deal... a whisky that is appealing to the "masses" may be frowned on by the snobs, as Dewars often is, being the best seller in the world... but one would assume that the Scots know a bit more about the character of their whisky... from "novice" to "expert"...
Not my very favorite, but I still love the stuff.
Yeah, knowing that the Scotts covet this whiskey more so than any other makes it more appealing to me as well. They fucking invented this. I'll go with their professional opinion.
To be fair, Glennorangje is the most commonly accessible bottle in the UK. Think of it like this... Bud Light is the most sold beer in the USA because it’s everywhere and it’s inexpensive. And yet, it is a terrible, mass produced product that pales in comparison to anything made by smaller American breweries.
@@MisterCaution You sound like a snob... and not very intelligent.
Bud Light, Coor Light, Miller Lite... all huge sellers, preferred and enjoyed by millions... who are YOU to say they all are dumb? Sure, there are many far better brews... so what? "Terrible"? Nonsense.
There are far better Scotches than Glenmorangie... but it is still VERY enjoyable.
Sales figures are far more credible than YOUR shallow opinions.
Just the Facts ... That was rather ad hominem for disagreeing with me. My point that Bud Light is terrible beer is indisputable-it is as objective as a fact as today is Saturday. Now, importantly, never once did I describe buying Bud Light as “dumb.” There are reasons to buy terrible beer. Some people buy it because it is cheap and available literally anywhere that sells beer products. Others buy it because they simply don’t like good beer, or don’t really care if what they are drinking is good or not. For example, I am not a wine fan, so I don’t really care about whether a given glass of wine is genuinely good or cheap, mass-produced stuff.
Now, describing Glenmorangie as the “Bud Light” of single malt Scotch was certainly harsh and probably undeserved, but I am looking at this point about Scots buying it-it’s everywhere over there. I do have a bottle of Glenmorangie in my cupboard right now for visitors who want to drink a dram, but don’t actually enjoy single malt Scotch.
@@MisterCaution Once again, your arrogance is beyond belief. No, fool, it is not "terrible"... you spit on all that enjoy that brew, along with other domestic light beers with your insipid and idiotic comments.
Yes, your comment about Glenmorangie was harsh (more like stupid)... like all of your comments. You know very little about the subject, beer, wine or scotch... so why not STFU?
No more chit chat... I will not respond to any more of your dumb shit posts.
I got a bottle of Glenmorangie in the US. It was so unlike the review here. It tasted extremely leathery. May be I just got unlucky.
Too bad you don't have a 1.75 liter bottle to stand over his smaller siblings. I have one now and it doesn't fit in my liquor cabinet. It's so tall!
umm are we not supposed to get a score or a recommendation?
No. Horst says that taste is too subjective, so he won't do it. If he doesn't like something, it is pretty obvious, and if he takes another drink, or finishes the dram, you know that he actually likes it.
lol. is the mike in his mouth?
Got the 4 little bottle sampler and I kinda hated this one. Even 100ml was hard to finish. The other 3 were far better - Lasanta especially, but also Quinta Ruban (strange color though) and 3rd favotite was Nectar D'or (most expensive).
I know I am likely in the minority but I was very underwhelmed by this one. I like my Whisky to be more robust than this. I would serve this to someone who enjoys a lite tasting spirit.
It is my least favorite scotch on my shelf of 9. The initial nose is like an aggressive alcohol, but Horst calls it 'citrousy'. Because I'd have to finish this bottle eventually, I gave it another try after watching this video. This time, I swirled the Glenmorangie more and let it air. I took tiny sips ... and it tasted much better. I don't like adding water, so another way is to take small sips and let residual saliva take care of the scotch. I can taste the vanilla, oak, and orange peel much better, with less interference from aggressive alcohol, especially at the finish. Give it a try and let me know.
I agree with you wholeheartedly. I dislike this Scotch more than any other single malt. This is more like a cheap blended whiskey, ala Dewars.
Dude is doing mouthwash with whiskey 😂
8:11 "That's a ten"
Swallowed the mic
Only problem I have with these reviews the prices are completely off by huge margins I know it’s 6 yo old but even 6 y ago the price was not 30 eur !!!! Now we talk 48 eur
No entiendo nada
Básicamente buen sabor a cítricos vainilla suave y pone pedo!!!
Rate 'em out of 10
But will it be out of *your* 10 or *his* 10? This is the reason that Horst and Ben don't rank or rate.
The mic is literally near his throat
right on the larynx
This is a fucking asmr video
I wasn't overly impressed with my last bottle of this, it had too much of a gnarly taste in it. I'm almost certain i got a bad bottle.
+HillaToppa 90'z No, it's just inferior Scotch Whiskey. Under aged, and has a harsh formula. The new formula of the Glenmorganie Lasanta 12 is really satisfying. Yet only being 43 percent volume, it's well balanced and smooth. Even better, when the new Lasanta 12 oxidizes, it becomes more smoother. Smooth as an 18 year malt. Enough said...
wesleytaylorviadomus Haven't tried the Lasanta yet but it's one of the ones i keep looking at. thanks for letting me know i'll be sure to pick up a bottle of it next time. to hell with the 10 year old.
+HillaToppa 90'z I had a bottle of this several years ago and it wasn't too good at first, but with about half the bottle left and two months untouched, I found that the oxidation had improved the taste.
Same here. Here the usa its around $40. In that price range, there are a lot of other whiskies to be desired.
ArtMorte Yeah i do know Oxidation can improve a whisky significantly but buying a bottle and having to wait weeks/months for it to oxidise just isn't practical for me. I drink whisky most nights so i tend to make it through bottles quicker than that.
Speyburn 10 beats this out in my opinion for 10 bucks less.
I'd say that it is EASILY on par w/this Glenmorangie 10..... Interesting thing about both of these single malts is that the Glenmorangie 10 is available (as of three years after this video) here in Wisconsin at 43%. Horst reported that his was only 40%. The Speyburn 10 just recently changed in availability where I've always found it at 43%----but the newer bottles in newer packaging are only at 40%.......This sort of pissed me off because I believe the flavor profile is affected by this------I'd rather add a little special water of my own to dilute if only mildly my own whisky from the higher ABV.......At any rate----GOOD DISCUSSION AND CHEERS!!!!
10 year old whiskeys make my eyes hurt.
Screw tops are a huge turn off for me.🤷♂️
Only the miniature is a screw top. The 350ml is corked.
Highlander lol
the vanilla..... no.... not really
Really disappointed with my bottle, its got some character but is very watered down, almost like a strong wine. It's going to the back of the cabinet for guests I don't like very much.
I have had a few bottles but the latest bottle I got is not right. Very weak and almost no citrus note. The previous bottles were much better. Very strange.
Which whiskeys are at the front of your cabinet? Out of interest
I find it to smooth and prefer the Jamieson or black bush for more bite
I'd have to agree. I was far more impressed with Glenfiddich and Glen Grant.
The small bottles are poor value for money. Nice whisky though.
The only scotch I have ever poured down the sink. This was too sweet for me by far. Maybe one for the bourbon brigade?
You poured it down the sink because you’re an idiot and don’t know what good scotch is. Go drink a vodka cranberry loser.
Saaadey ke kara chore
This guy is a professional drunk
Thumbs up
T Shephard just like you can’t trust a thin cook
You can’t beat a triple distilled Irish whiskey, in fact you can’t beat any Irish whiskey
Bourbon and scotch are both better than garbage Irish whiskey. Try again rookie!!
skip to 6:30 to miss the waffle.
Glenmorangie is like the Budweiser of Scotch. Basic as it gets. More like a bourbon really.
It’s my aim in life to be as unapologetically pretentious as Mr. Horst here.
Worst single malt I have ever tried. It tastes watery.
What are you favorite single malts ?
bum
waffling on about the original, and 10 year on the box...this bloke's already had a dram or two (".)
master taster = chronic drunkard?
Never a critical word. All these youtube whisky reviewers are, I suspect, in the pay of the whisky corporations. Don't believe their bs. Big promotion and ad money spent to get suckers to buy overpriced booze. I'm going back to Teacher's (even that they won't give a bad review!).
His review of Tullamore Dew and Bushmills show that he's not afraid of negative reviews (or at least, negative reactions). He does occasionally preface his reviews saying he doesn't like bitter, so you mileage may vary.
