A Tale of the Forest is the new release from Glenmorangie, and is the third in their “A tale of…” series, following A Tale of Cake and A Tale of Winter. A Tale of the Forest is aptly named, for its aromas, flavours, style – and even its production – are all closely linked to the forest. Yes, really!
Let’s get the big and obvious feature of this whisky out of the way first: This is unlike any Glenmorangie you’ve previously tried. It’s an altogether different style, and – whilst it’s got that signature Glenmorangie depth, complexity, and mineralic note – it offers aromas and flavours that will have you thinking you’re a long way from Tain.
