Glenmorangie Description

First released more than 175 years ago by our founders, the original Glenmorangie 10 year old was known for its mellow tones and delicacy of flavour.

All these years later, The Original remains at the heart of everything we do. Like home, we carry with us, no matter how far we travel. And every time we return, we discover something new.

To give Original a delicious, go-anywhere finesse, we make it in our giraffe-high stills, then we age it 10 years in bourbon casks to absorb all manner of delectable flavours.

The result is a smooth whisky which welcomes you with a rush of citrus, then holds your attention with layers of luscious flavour, from orange to honey and creamy vanilla, with bursts of peach.

We are constantly embarking on new sensory journeys, yet we always come home to Original.

Blend and Origin: The Original is double distilled in Scotland’s tallest stills, then matured for 10 years in first- and second-fill American ex-bourbon casks, including remarkable, air-dried bespoke “designer casks” from Missouri. During this stage, the whisky develops flavours of peach and vanilla and finds the perfect, complex balance that characterises the house style.

  • Colour: Bright, pale gold.
  • Nose: Citrus and ripening peaches are balanced by vanilla softness.
  • Taste: Vanilla emerges, then gives way to a burst of flowery fruitiness.
  • Finish: A clean and salving aftertaste with hints of orange and peach.

Wine Enthusiast: 85-89 Points

"The first sniffings detect delicate notes of candied apple, light toffee and pear drops; aeration adds nuances of rose petals, carnations and lightly toasted malt. The palate entry is grainy and moderately sweet; at midpalate there's a burst of red pepper backed by tastes of pears, peaches, mushroom, old attic and cigar tobacco. Ends cleanly. A deceptively complex 10 year old. Best Buy." — P.P.
