Glenmorangie A Tale of Ice Cream: “Whisky meets sweet temptation”

Glenmorangie, renowned for its unrivaled whisky distilling skills, is making a splash with its latest creation: the Glenmorangie A Tale of Ice Cream Whisky This fifth edition of the popular and imaginative A Tale Of... series will delight both whisky connoisseurs and connoisseurs of sweet treats.

With this innovative single malt, Glenmorangie creates a perfect symbiosis of the rich tradition of Scotch whisky and the playful lightness of a delicious dessert. The limited-edition creation promises to beguile the senses while leaving the classic boundaries of the whisky world far behind.

This spectacular novelty, released under the charming name “An Ice Cream Story”, stands out with its unconventional approach.

Once again, Glenmorangie proves that it dares to push the boundaries of whisky to create something new.

Dr. Bill Lumsden, the Master of Whisky Creation, and Gillian Macdonald, Head of Maturation, have jointly composed a unique blend: Glenmorangie A Tale of Ice Cream whisky is made from a combination of bourbon casks and casks with a particularly high vanilla content. This maturation makes for a whisky that brings out the sweetest and creamiest flavors of Glenmorangie - a true dessert in a glass.

The range of aromas in this exceptional edition is impressive. On the nose, the whisky seduces with notes of ripe peaches, lemon sorbet and creamy vanilla. But it doesn't stop there: coconut flakes, toffee sauce and a hint of honey play around the senses, while the whisky also shines with delicate oak notes and a hint of spices. The palate reveals a velvety sweetness that is reminiscent of the feeling of dipping a spoon into melt-in-the-mouth vanilla ice cream. The texture is lush and creamy, while fruity and sweet notes of peach melba and lemon unite the taste buds in a wonderful dance. But it's the added accents of cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg that round out the flavor with a touch of warmth and spice.

Dr. Bill Lumsden himself aptly describes this creation: “A sip of Glenmorangie A Tale of Ice Cream with notes of peach melba, lemon sorbet and creamy vanilla is like dipping your spoon into a carousel of flavors!”

It is this unique interplay of creamy, sweet and spicy flavors that makes the whisky an unforgettable experience.

The design of the pastel-colored gift box and label was inspired by the colors and textures of luxurious ice cream sundaes. Playful veils of sauce and delicate toppings adorn the artful packaging and reflect the lightness and joy that Glenmorangie A Tale of Ice Cream Whisky promises.

For whisky lovers looking for new, exciting experiences, Glenmorangie also offers the opportunity to enjoy this special whisky in an unconventional way.

The distillery invites connoisseurs to serve the whisky chilled or even integrate it into ice cream desserts. Whether as a base for cocktails, on its own with a scoop of handmade ice cream or simply as a refreshing end to a summer evening - this whisky opens up a whole new dimension of enjoyment.

With this creation, Glenmorangie impressively demonstrates that the world of whisky has more to offer than the classic notes of smoke and peat. A Tale of Ice Cream Whisky is a masterpiece of the brand's creativity and innovative spirit, taking lovers of fine spirits on a tantalizing journey into the world of sweet temptations. With a strength of 46% vol. and unparalleled depth and complexity, this whisky is the perfect introduction to the imaginative world of Glenmorangie for connoisseurs and new discoverers alike.

From September 23, Glenmorangie A Tale of Ice Cream will be available from specialist retailers for €85.00 (RRP) - but only while stocks last.
