Description
A limited-edition whisky born over a thousand walks in the forest. Crafted from barley kilned with woodland botanicals.
Nose of pine, juniper and coriander along with roasted chestnut and whisper of smoke. Flavour explodes in your mouth. Whirls of peppermint, eucalyptus and bitter orange with vanilla and black liquorice. Finish is slow and luscious featuring lemon, orange and a soft hint of oak. This is a whisky that surrounds and surprises your senses, roam its fragrant wooded depths and let the flavours run free.
Some years ago, while walking in the woods, Glenmorangie Master Distiller, Dr Bill Lumsden recalled how ancient Highland whisky makers dried their barley with all kinds of forest fuel. He began experimenting by kilning his barley with many different botanicals, finally selecting juniper berries, birch bark and heather flowers married with a little peat. Aged in bourbon casks including many refill casks, chosen to allow the spirits forest flavours to shine.
