Description
The Glenmorangie A Tale of Ice Cream Limited Edition is the fifth release in the distillery's "A Tale Of..." series, an experimental Highland single malt Scotch whisky inspired by the sweet, creamy flavours of an ice cream parlour.
This limited edition whisky was created by Dr. Bill Lumsden, Glenmorangie's Director of Whisky Creation, and Master Blender Gillian Macdonald, who aged single malt in a combination of ex-bourbon casks and specially toasted new oak "high-vanillin" casks. This unique toasting process breaks down lignin in the wood to maximise the vanillin compound, which imparts rich vanilla notes. The whisky is bottled at 46% ABV and is non-chill-filtered.

About the Distillery:
According to the Glenmorangie Company, the earliest record of the production of alcohol at Morangie Farm is dated 1703. In the 1730s a brewery was built on the site that shared the farm's water source, the Tarlogie Spring. A former distillery manager, William Matheson, acquired the farm in 1843 and converted the Morangie brewery to a distillery, equipped with two-second hand gin stills. He later renamed the distillery Glenmorangie.
The distillery was purchased by its main customer, the Leith firm Macdonald and Muir, in 1918. The Macdonald family would retain control of the company for almost 90 years.
