The Glenmorangie distillery, founded in 1843 in the Scottish Highlands near Tain, is famous for its exquisite single malt Scotch whiskies. These are distilled in the highest stills in Scotland, resulting in a particularly fine and mild distillate. Glenmorangie is known for its innovative cask finishing technique, which matures whiskies in different types of casks such as port, sherry and wine casks, giving them a unique depth of flavor.
Glenmorangie also has a strong focus on sustainability, with initiatives to reduce CO2 emissions and reuse water, making the distillery a pioneer not only in the whisky industry but also in global spirits production. The distillery remains true to its heritage while continuously working to minimize its environmental footprint while maintaining the quality of its whiskies.
Glenmorangie The ACCORD 12 Years Old, part of the Legends Collection, combines maturation in American oak bourbon casks with a finish in Oloroso sherry casks. This process gives it a base of sweet vanilla notes, complemented by fruity and slightly sweet aromas that are rounded off by a pleasant spiciness.
The result is a smooth and complex whisky that shows the harmonious fusion of traditional Scottish whisky making with Spanish sherry influences, ideal for connoisseurs who appreciate a balanced combination of sweetness and spice. (automated translation)
