Glenmorangie The Original 12 Year Old

Glenmorangie1.75 Lt43% ABV

The backbone of Glenmorangie, aged in bourbon casks

This refined Highland single malt offers a bright and inviting nose of citrus and ripening peaches, softened by vanilla. The palate is clean and creamy with notes of honey, delicate orange, and peach, leading to a clean, lingering finish with hints of peach and almond.

The story behind it

The maker

Founded in 1843 by William Matheson on the banks of the Dornoch Firth, Glenmorangie has been pioneering wood finishing techniques for generations. Under the guidance of Dr. Bill Lumsden, the Highland house continues to lead the industry with a commitment to creative cask sourcing and meticulous wood maturation.

How it is made

Crafted at the Glenmorangie distillery & rickhouse in Tain, this single malt is distilled in Scotland's tallest stills, which are as tall as an adult giraffe. These towering copper necks ensure only the lightest, purest vapors rise to the top, creating an elegant and smooth spirit.
