Very Old St. Nick Ancient Cask Bourbon

80:20 Glenmorangie

Yet another delightful whisky accident which happened back in 1999 when mistakenly 80% Glenmorangie 21 Year old casks were mixed with 20% of something else.  It is worrying that this has happend a number of times at Glenmorangie.

Perhaps it's obvious to see where the name comes from, what serendipity.
