When it comes to whiskey, I normally order the cheapest bottle on the menu but for all you whiskey lovers out there, maybe give Glenmorangie a go next time. The Scottish distillery founded in 1843 has a deep heritage and legacy in single malt Scotch whisky but of course, you shouldn’t just take my word for it.

It just seems that Glenmorangie can’t stop winning awards. The distillery’s range of single malt whiskies won a total of 27 awards classed “gold” or above in prestigious industry competitions – all in 2019 alone! Seven of those awards were won at the International Wine & Spirits Competition, in which Glenmorangie has won multiple gold medals every consecutive year for a decade.

Having pioneered the art of extra-maturation now widely used throughout the industry, Glenmorangie’s award-winning Whisky Creation Team, led by acclaimed Director of Distilling, Whisky Creation & Whisky Stocks, Dr. Bill Lumsden, continues to challenge the bounds of possibility in single malt, as they seek to bring evermore wondrous whiskies to the world.

And it’s not gone unnoticed either. At the 2019 International Whisky Competition (IWC), Dr. Lumsden was named as Master Distiller of the Year – a title he also received from the IWC in 2016 and 2017, making him the first person in IWC history to receive the coveted title three times. He’s also won numerous other awards which led to him being entered into the prestigious Icons of Whisky Hall of Fame 2020.

That’s some pretty impressive stuff. With the brand embarking on it’s Delicious Adventure, a campaign aimed at giving whisky connoisseurs the opportunity to discern Glenmorangie’s appeal to the senses, what better time to start insisting on Glenmorangie when the pubs and bars reopen after RMCO. I know I will.

That being said, the best way to enjoy Glenmorangie is responsibly. So please, don’t drink and drive.
