Glenmorangie A Tale of The Forest Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky 750ml

Glenmorangie A Tale of the Forest Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky – 750ml | 46% ABV

Process & Craftsmanship

This limited-edition expression is Glenmorangie’s first whisky made using barley kilned with woodland botanicals—an ancient technique revived by Dr. Bill Lumsden. Ingredients such as juniper berries, birch bark, and heather flowers are used during kilning, infusing the spirit with subtle herbal and aromatic complexity.

The whisky is then matured in ex-bourbon and refill casks, allowing the unique botanical character to remain at the forefront without heavy oak influence.

Appearance

Bright golden amber, with warm, natural tones reflecting its bourbon cask maturation.

Tasting Notes

Nose: Highly aromatic and forest-driven, with notes of pine, juniper, coriander, and soft wood smoke. Fresh herbal tones mingle with hints of citrus and earth.

Palate: Lively and complex, featuring eucalyptus, bitter orange, minty freshness, and green herbal layers. A gentle sweetness balances the whisky’s unique botanical edge.

Finish: Long and gently drying, with lingering oak, citrus peel, and subtle herbal spice that echoes a walk through the woods.

What Makes It Special

A Tale of the Forest stands apart as one of Glenmorangie’s most innovative creations. By incorporating botanicals into the malting process, it introduces flavors more commonly associated with gin or herbal liqueurs—while still retaining the elegance of a Highland single malt.

Its creative concept, combined with striking artistic packaging, makes it both a conversation piece and a collector-worthy bottle.

How to Enjoy

Best enjoyed neat to fully explore its aromatic complexity. A splash of water can open up its herbal and citrus notes. For a different experience, try it over ice to emphasize its refreshing, forest-like character.
