Glenmorangie The Original 10 Year Old
*We have reimagined our signature single malt. Now at 12 years old, The Original is as smooth and as luscious as you knew it before but now even more delicious. It is where all our whisky-making adventures begin and remains at the heart of everything we do. We now let it age for 12 years in bourbon casks, where it absorbs all manner of delectable flavours. The result is a whisky that welcomes you with a rush of citrus and holds your attention with layers of luscious flavour. At Glenmorangie, we are constantly embarking on new sensory journeys, yet we always come home to Original.
Swirling with creamy vanilla and a rush of citrus, layered with honey and peach, this single malt takes The Original’s kaleidoscope of flavours to new heights of deliciousness. Critics have met the whisky with delight, awarding it a coveted gold medal at the prestigious World Whiskies Awards 2024.
