Originally introduced over 175 years ago by the distillery's founders, the Glenmorangie 10-year-old whisky was celebrated for its gentle and delicate character.

Over the years, the distillery expertly tempers this powerful spirit by aging it in rare and treasured casks. Bourbon casks contribute creaminess, sherry casks impart sweetness, and the spice of virgin charred oak adds depth. This intricate dance of flavors is further enriched by the inclusion of some of the oldest whisky in their collection.
