Glenmorangie A Tale Ice Cream Limited Edition 70cl

Glenmorangie A Tale of Ice Cream represents the first time the distillery has used casks toasted to achieve this effect. This followed experimentation with a variety of different woods before selecting virgin oak casks toasted in this particular way. The press release also makes a point of noting that the whisky does not contain vanilla extract. Which would be ILLEGAL in Scotch whisky.

The Glenmorangie ‘A Tale of…’ series expands with another expression that reflects director of whisky creation Dr Bill Lumsden’s sweet tooth. The good doctor was inspired by his favourite ice cream parlour to create this whisky, which is rich, creamy, and full of vanilla flavours.

To achieve this, Lumsden selected casks rich in vanillin, the aromatic compound which brings vanilla flavours to whisky. The good people at Glenmo explain: “When you toast barrels, the lignin (which aids the wood’s structure) breaks down and releases compounds including vanillin. Glenmorangie’s high-vanillin casks were toasted in a particular way, to create higher concentrations of vanillin”.
