Glenmorangie A Tale of Tokyo Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky 750ml

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

Process & Craftsmanship

Created by Dr. Bill Lumsden, this whisky is inspired by Tokyo’s sensory diversity and energy. It combines Glenmorangie matured in traditional ex-bourbon and sherry casks with portions aged in rare Mizunara oak—an uncommon Japanese wood prized for its aromatic complexity.

This multi-cask approach creates a whisky defined by contrast: bright citrus and sweetness balanced by spice, incense, and subtle wood influence.

Appearance

Rich golden amber, with warm tones reflecting its diverse cask maturation.

Tasting Notes

Nose: Expressive and layered, with aromas of orange zest, sweet toffee, and incense-like sandalwood. Hints of spice and light smoke add intrigue.

Palate: Complex and lively, featuring flavors of bitter cherry, citrus peel, honey, and warm spice. Mizunara oak introduces notes of sandalwood, green tea, and subtle earthiness, creating a distinctive, slightly exotic profile.

Finish: Long and evolving, with lingering citrus, gentle spice, and a dry, aromatic woodiness that reflects the Mizunara influence.

What Makes It Special

Its artistic packaging and limited availability also make it highly collectible among whisky enthusiasts.
