"Glenmorangie has always been about imagination in a glass. For more than 180 years, the Highland distillery has turned curiosity into craft, and its latest limited-edition release continues that tradition with flair. "A Tale of Spices" isn't just another single malt -it's a journey through a spice market bottled for those who like their whisky with a little adventure. As the sixth release in Glenmorangie's "A Tale Of..." series, it takes inspiration from vibrant bazaars and translates that sensory overload into layers of complexity"
"For the first time, Glenmorangie married whisky finished in four different types of cask, each adding its own flourish. Moroccan red wine casks crafted from French oak lend deep spice notes. New charred oak layers on smoky warmth. Shaved and toasted red wine casks bring fruity nuance. Finally, Pedro Ximénez sherry casks add a velvety sweetness. That quartet of influences comes together to create something entirely new: a whisky brimming with complexity but tied together by Glenmorangie's signature elegance."
Glenmorangie released a limited-edition single malt called "A Tale of Spices" as the sixth entry in a narrative-driven series. Dr. Bill Lumsden MBE and Master Blender Gillian Macdonald conceived the whisky around the sensory palette of bustling spice bazaars. The whisky uses an experimental marriage of four cask finishes—Moroccan red wine casks from French oak, new charred oak, shaved and toasted red wine casks, and Pedro Ximénez sherry casks—each contributing spice, smoky warmth, fruity nuance, and velvety sweetness. The result emphasizes layered complexity while maintaining Glenmorangie’s signature elegance and inventive approach to finishing.
