Glenmorangie Whisky

In Tain, on the banks of the Dornoch Firth, Glenmorangie's stills rise higher than any other in Scotland - 'like the long necks of giraffes', as the distillery itself describes them. Founded in 1843 on an old brewery site, Glenmorangie was acquired by luxury group LVMH in 2004-05, which has since positioned the whisky as one of Scotland's most innovative names in cask experimentation. The height of the stills gives a lightness and elegance that has become the house signature.

  • Bottle of Glenmorangie The Original Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky
    Item no.: 22227865455-3

    Glenmorangie has Scotland's tallest pot stills, as tall as a fully grown giraffe, and that's part of the reason The Original sits so light and elegant on the tongue. It's the bottle that has introduced more people to the distillery than any other.

    Expert's Description

    Glenmorangie 12 Year Old The Original is a Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky matured in bourbon casks and bottled at 40%.

    The distillery sits in Tain in the north of Scotland and uses some of the tallest stills in the country, giving the spirit unusually long contact with the copper before it condenses. The result is a light, clean and remarkably smooth whisky that has been Glenmorangie's core story since 1843.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Citrus blossom and a light vanilla sweetness, backed by a fresh, almost mentholated crispness.

    Palate

    Soft and round, with honey, pear and a mild spice from the bourbon cask. The texture is light, but far from thin.

    Finish

    Short to medium, clean and refreshing, with a last hint of citrus.

  • Bottle of Glenmorangie Traditional 100 Proof Highland whisky
    Item no.: 505956-759824-66

    This is how Glenmorangie used to taste, before whisky was routinely diluted down to today's usual 40-43%. Traditional 100 Proof is a tribute to that older, more powerful style.

    Expert's Description

    Glenmorangie Traditional 100 Proof is a Single Highland Malt Scotch Whisky bottled at a full 57.2% – the historic "100 proof" strength that was common for whisky in the early 1900s.

    The whisky carries no age statement but is matured in bourbon casks at the distillery in Tain, just like Glenmorangie's core range. It's non-chill-filtered and has no added colouring, which together with the higher strength gives a fuller, more intense version of Glenmorangie's classic, citrus-driven style.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Powerful and intense, with toasted citrus peel, vanilla and a light touch of honey.

    Palate

    Full and oily on the tongue, with orange, caramel and a warm, spiced sweetness from the higher strength.

    Finish

    Long and warm, with lingering notes of citrus and cask spice.

    Did You Know?

    "100 proof" is an old strength measure dating back to a time when whisky's alcohol content was tested by soaking gunpowder in the spirit – if it burned evenly, the strength was "proven" to be correct.

  • Westport Glenmorangie Wilson Morgan whisky bottle
    Item no.: 2227865438-1002-43

    Westport is the unofficial name used for Glenmorangie when the whisky has a small amount of spirit from another distillery added, meaning it cannot be sold as a single malt. This cask shows just how much character the Italian house Wilson & Morgan can conjure.

    The expert's description

    Westport 2004/2019 Glenmorangie Wilson & Morgan 15 år Highland Blended Malt Scotch Whisky 57,8% is a Highland Blended Malt Scotch Whisky, matured in Sherry wood, butt #900050 and bottled at 57.8%.

    The whisky was distilled in 2004 and bottled in 2019 by Wilson & Morgan from a single sherry butt, #900050, with an outturn of 539 bottles. It carries clear traces of Glenmorangie's clean, fruity, lightly spiced profile, but gains extra depth and dark nuances from the long sherry maturation.

    Tasting Notes

    Nose

    Dried fruit, raisins, dark caramel and warm spice.

    Palate

    Full and oily with nuts, oak and chocolate.

    Finish

    Long, dark and lasting with sherry-driven tones.

    Did you know?

    The name Westport is typically used when a whisky from a named distillery has a small proportion from another distillery blended in, which legally prevents it from carrying the single malt label, even though the majority still comes from one place.

About Glenmorangie Whisky

Glenmorangie is a Highland distillery in Tain, known for having Scotland's tallest pot stills. For a newcomer, it's a light, creamy, approachable whisky, often recommended as a good first single malt; for the connoisseur, Glenmorangie is one of the brands that has pushed the boundaries of wood finishing - maturation in specialty casks like port, sherry and sauternes - which under LVMH ownership has made the house a trendsetter rather than a traditionalist.

History & Background

The distillery was founded in 1843 and is today owned by the French luxury group LVMH, known for its pioneering approach to cask finish experiments in modern times.

Production & Style

Glenmorangie's exceptionally tall pot stills - among the tallest in Scotland - allow only the lightest vapours through to further distillation, resulting in an unusually clean whisky.

Signature Style

Light, Elegant, Floral
The taste offers a light, elegant character with floral and citrus-tinged notes.
