Glenmorangie – "the Glen of Tranquility" – is a distiller of single malt Scotch whisky, located on the south coast of the Dornoch Firth, 1 mile North West of the town of Tain, Ross, Scotland.
Glenmorangie is distilled in the tallest pot stills in Scotland, at over 5.1 m (16 feet 10 inches) in height.
Although The Glenmorangie is aged in American bourbon casks, also released are a range of malts that, after aging in bourbon casks, are transferred to casks that have been used previously to mature wines.

Single Malts: Although still a small percentage of overall Scotch consumption, single malts have risen in popularity in recent years.

 Glenmorangie Single Highland Malt Scotch Whisky 15 year old - Spirit Haus Wine and Spirit Retailer - Wine Store   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
This rare Glenmorangie malt scotch whisky has been matured for fifteen years in casks of American white oak, from the Ozark Mountains in Missouri, which have previously been used in the making of bourbon.
The casks lie undisturbed in Glenmorangie's traditional stone-biult and earth-floored warehouses on Dornoch Firth where they are permeated by fresh sea air; the gentle local climate ensuring a steady path to maturity.
At Glenmorangie however, we have found that transferring the mature whisky to air-dried, freshly charred β€˜new oak' for a short period of β€˜finishing' adds other unique flavours and an intriguing spiciness.
