Some time ago, Dr Bill Lumsden, Glenmorangie’s Director of Whisky Creation, began to imagine how he could capture the lavish flavors found in an ice cream parlor in a single malt, bringing out even more sweet and creamy vanilla-like flavors in Glenmorangie’s spirit. And after a host of experiments, he and Master Blender, Gillian Macdonald, united single malt aged in bourbon casks with their first whisky finished in high-vanillin casks. These new oak casks had been especially toasted to bring out more vanilla qualities; rippling with notes of ripe peaches, vanilla and coconut, A Tale of Ice Cream takes Glenmorangie’s sweet, fruity flavors to a decadent peak. This whisky’s pastel-toned presentation box evokes the mouth-watering hues, swirls of sauce, textures, and toppings found in the most luxurious ice cream parlors.
