Glenmorangie’s whisky creators are endlessly imaginative in their quest to dream up delicious whiskies. And, make their more delicate, fruity spirit in Scotland’s tallest stills, and age it in the world’s finest casks. In pursuit of new flavour combinations, Glenmorangie has crafted the perfect single malt whisky for mixing.
To achieve the whisky’s wondrous cascade of taste, the creators drew from the brand’s epic array of casks. Hence, bringing to life a freewheeling single malt, with swirling aromas of pear and vanilla setting the stage for rich orange sherbet and fudge. This versatile single malt offers a rich taste that not only complements, but also cuts through all manner of mixers, for delicious drinks.
To inspire mixing, Glenmorangie has designed a series of refreshingly simple serves – each needing just 2-4 ingredients and easy to make at home using X by Glenmorangie.
