Glenmorangie A Tale of Cake (750ml). Discontinued bottle

Glenmorangie A Tale of Cake is a limited edition single malt that celebrates the joyous, nostalgic associations we have with cake—through a sophisticated lens of whisky-making innovation. Created by Glenmorangies Director of Whisky Creation, Dr. Bill Lumsden, this expression explores the possibility of capturing dessert-like sweetness in whisky through an unconventional aging process.

At the heart of its creation lies the use of Tokaji dessert wine casks from Hungary, a rare and complex choice in the world of Scotch whisky. These casks—previously used to mature one of the worlds oldest sweet wines—bring forward unique honeyed and fruity undertones in the Glenmorangie spirit. The base spirit itself is distilled in Glenmorangie’s signature tall-necked copper stills, the tallest in Scotland, which help ensure a light and elegant profile, perfectly suited for absorbing the rich influence of the Tokaji casks.

This expression embodies Glenmorangie’s ethos of pushing creative boundaries while preserving their Highland heritage. Bottled in a vibrant and whimsical packaging design, A Tale of Cake is both a sensory journey and a collectors gem.
