A History and Taste of Excellence

Crafting their single malt since 1843, farmer William Matheson and his wife Anne followed their dreams and founded the Glenmorangie Distillery and have been dreaming up wondrous whiskies in the very same spot, ever since.

The Tarlogie Springs, Glenmorangie's own water source and most prized asset, is the product of rain that has been forcing its way through layers of limestone and sandstone for a hundred years.

These natural minerals give it its 'hard' water qualities and provide Glenmorangie with a raw ingredient unique amongst Highland distilleries. Their ancient ancestors drank there, considering the pure, mineral-rich waters of the Springs to be sacred. 

Part of Glenmorangie’s Prestige Range, this 18 year old spent its first 15 years in American white oak bourbon casks. After this time, 30% was transferred to Oloroso sherry casks where it spent its final days, as the rest remained in bourbon casks. After 18 years has passed in total, the whisky was reunited and bottled at 43% ABV. A thick, creamy and fruity single malt Scotch Whisky presented in a wonderfully elegant bottle.
