A Sweet Indulgence: Glenmorangie’s Latest High-Vanillin Cask Creation


Glenmorangie has long been known for pushing the boundaries of whisky-making, and their latest release is no exception. Inspired by life’s simple pleasures, particularly the joy of a decadent dessert, Dr Bill, Glenmorangie’s Director of Whisky Creation, has crafted something truly special.

This release, the fifth in the "A Tale of" series, continues Glenmorangie’s tradition of innovation and creativity in whisky-making, offering a taste experience that is as bold as it is unique.

Glenmorangie’s Flavorful Reverie

This new whisky, aged in high-vanillin and bourbon casks, is a celebration of indulgence. The high-vanillin casks were toasted in a unique way, allowing for an elevated concentration of vanillin—a compound that brings rich vanilla notes to whisky. It’s the first time Glenmorangie has experimented with this particular process, and the results are extraordinary.

Flavours reminiscent of a luxurious ice cream sundae dance on the palate. Imagine ripe peach melba, honeycomb, and lemon sorbet, balanced by layers of brioche, marzipan, and coconut flakes, all drizzled with toffee-apple sauce. It’s a whisky that evokes memories of life’s simplest pleasures, blending sweetness with sophistication.
