Glenmorangie 15 Year Old Single Malt Whisky

 

Crafting single malt whisky since 1843, when farmer William Matheson and his wife Anne followed their dreams and founded the Glenmorangie Distillery. Despite being owned by blenders, MacDonald & Muir, for most of the 20th century, Glenmorangie had an early focus on bottling its single malt. This became the distillery's main output in 1959, and with the unique flavours derived from Scotland's smallest stills, coupled with their pioneering use of wood finishing, Glenmorangie is now one of the world's biggest selling malts. As a result, the distillery portfolio over the years has been extensive, and little has been spared for independent bottlers.

A much loved former staple of the core range, this distillery bottling was discontinued during a brand refresh in 2007, along with the 30 year old.

This Glenmorangie Single Highland Rare Malt Scotch Whisky has been aged for 15 years in Ex-Bourbon Casks and New Oak Casks.
