Description
Glenmorangie, a celebrated Highland distillery since 1843, is famous for its pioneering wood management and exceptionally tall stills. The limited edition Tale of Spices joins the ‘A Tale Of…’ series, conceived by Dr Bill Lumsden to capture the sensory richness of a spice market. It begins its maturation in ex-bourbon casks before being finished in a combination of four cask types never used together before at Glenmorangie: Moroccan red wine casks crafted from French oak, new charred oak, shaved and toasted red wine casks, and Pedro Ximénez sherry casks. The result is a complex, transportive and beautifully balanced dram, best enjoyed neat to appreciate its depth.

- Nose: A perfumed bouquet of rose, carnation, jasmine and lilac, interwoven with cumin, saffron, nutmeg, ginger and anise.
- Palate: A burst of ginger, black pepper and mustard seed, tempered by sweet notes of mint toffee, demerara sugar and sugar-coated almonds, lifted by a hint of eucalyptus.
