Tasting Notes
Appearance
Warm, luminous gold — the inviting, sun-kissed colour of a single malt that has spent 12 years absorbing all manner of delectable flavours from bourbon casks, with the clarity and brilliance that Glenmorangie’s meticulous distilling craft delivers.
Aroma
Creamy vanilla and a rush of citrus swirl together on the nose, layered with honey and peach — the kaleidoscope of flavours that defines Glenmorangie The Original, now taken to new heights of deliciousness with 12 years of bourbon cask maturation.
Palate
Smooth and luscious — citrus leads the way, with creamy vanilla, honey, and peach adding layers of flavour that hold your attention from the first sip to the last. Deeper and more complex than before, with the approachable elegance that has made The Original the heart of everything Glenmorangie does.
Pairs With
A natural companion for fresh fruit desserts, crème brûlée, soft cheeses, smoked salmon, and any occasion that calls for a whisky of genuine warmth and welcome — Glenmorangie The Original 12 Year Old is equally at home served neat, over ice, or with a splash of water to open the full bouquet of vanilla, citrus, and honey.
