Fun Facts

Product Details

Nose: Bright citrus notes of orange and lemon zest. Vanilla and pear aromas emerge, followed by hints of coconut and almond. A subtle whisper of oak rounds out the bouquet.

Palate: Smooth and creamy texture. Initial burst of sweet orange marmalade and vanilla custard. Mid-palate reveals honey-drizzled pears and a touch of milk chocolate. Gentle spices like cinnamon and nutmeg add depth.

Finish: Medium length with lingering warmth. Sweet citrus fades to reveal toasted oak and a hint of white pepper. Leaves a pleasant, slightly drying sensation with echoes of vanilla and almond.

Glenmorangie X is crafted using the tallest stills in Scotland, which create an exceptionally smooth and delicate spirit. This single malt is then matured in a combination of bourbon and new charred oak casks, giving it a unique balance of sweetness and spice that's designed to shine in mixed drinks.

Glenmorangie X is the first single malt Scotch whisky specifically created for mixing, breaking from the tradition of sipping malts neat or with water. Its unique flavor profile was developed in collaboration with top bartenders to ensure it shines in cocktails.

The "X" in Glenmorangie X isn't just a stylish name—it represents the Roman numeral for 10, nodding to the whisky's 10-year aging process in first and second fill bourbon casks. This decade-long maturation gives it a smooth character that blends seamlessly in drinks.

Despite being designed for cocktails, Glenmorangie X is still a true single malt Scotch. It's made from 100% malted barley at a single distillery, using Glenmorangie's famously tall stills—the tallest in Scotland at 26 feet 3 inches—which create an exceptionally smooth spirit perfect for mixing.
