Glenmorangie A Tale Of Ice Cream

A WHISKY DREAMED UP IN AN ICE CREAM PARLOUR

For our Director of whisky Creation, Dr Bill, and his sweet tooth, ice cream is the one indulgence he cannot resist. Captivated by the elegant pleasures of his favorite ice cream parlour, he imagined a whisky piled high with decadence and lavish swirls of flavor.

WITH AN ICE CREAM MENU IN THEIR MINDS

He and Master Blender, Gillian Macdonald, aged Glenmorangie in high-vanillin and bourbon casks, to bring our whiskys richest, creamiest side to its tantalizing best.

LEAN INTO YOUR SWEET TOOTH

This is a whisky that reminds you of the simple pleasures in life. We invite whisky lovers (old and new) to lean into your sweet tooth with this whisky, the ultimate treat if you have a weakness for deliciously indulgent whiskies.

Combining melting notes of peach melba with scoops of lemon sorbet and vanilla, topped with coconut flakes and toffee sauce, A Tale of Ice Cream is a deliciously decadent treat.

AGED IN BOURBON & HIGH-VANILLIN CASKS

Vanillin is an aromatic compound which brings vanilla flavours to whisky. When you toast barrels, the lignin (which aids the woods structure) breaks down and releases compounds including vanillin. Our new oak casks have been especially toasted to bring out more vanilla qualities, hence these casks being called high-vanillin casks.
