Glenmorangie 18 Year Old Azuma Makoto

Conceived by the overflowing imagination of its creators, Glenmorangie 18 years old is one of the most appreciated single malts of the Scottish House. Its dazzling and luminous tastes are first the result of the elaboration of this delicate and fruity spirit in stills the height of a giraffe, which leave more room for taste and aromas. 

Captivated by the scents he found in the 18 Year Old’s bouquet, the floral artist likened this single malt to the wonder of a flower in bloom.

He explains: “It begins with rich, rounded aromas of dried fruits and honey, then unfurls into a bouquet of geranium, tuberose and jasmine. They dance on the tongue with honeysuckle and sweet pea, figs and nuts until the blossoms fade into a sweet and lingering finish."

As Azuma Makoto translated the whisky’s delicious bourbon cask softness and sweet, Oloroso sherry cask hints, he drew on the beauty of almost 100 different blooms from across the world.

He coaxed each one into blossom at his Tokyo studio for his floral masterpiece Dancing Flowers of Glenmorangie, which is shared in this wondrous limited edition.
