Glenmorangie The Original 10 Years Old is an iconic Highland single malt Scotch whisky, matured for a full 10 years in first- and second-fill American white‑oak ex‑bourbon casks. Crafted in Scotland’s tallest stills, it delivers a beautifully balanced profile that blends floral elegance with fruity brightness and creamy malt character.
About the Producer:
Located in Tain, in the Scottish Highlands, Glenmorangie distillery dates back to 1843 and is known for producing one of the lightest and most refined single malts in Scotland. Now under LVMH ownership, Glenmorangie continues to use its signature “giraffe‑high” stills and slow‑grown Missouri oak casks to create smooth, aromatic whiskies that reflect its legacy and innovation :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}.
Tasting Notes:
The color is pale lemon‑gold. On the nose, expect citrus fruits—especially orange and lemon peel—paired with honey, vanilla cream, and delicate floral tones. The palate reveals creamy white fruits such as apple, nectarine and pear with soft toffee, vanilla frosting, and subtle spice. The finish is smooth and medium‑long, with lingering citrus zest, malt sweetness, and a hint of white pepper :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}.
