✨ Technical Specifications
Hailing from the wind-swept shores of the Dornoch Firth in the Scottish Highlands, Glenmorangie's Bond House No. 1 Collection pays homage to the distillery's historic 19th-century warehouse. In 1990, this grand stone building was transformed into a state-of-the-art stillhouse, home to Glenmorangie's legendary copper stills—the tallest in Scotland, designed to capture only the purest, most elegant vapors. The inaugural release of this collection, distilled in 1990 and bottled in 2017, represents a triumph over adversity. The 1990 barley harvest was notoriously difficult, yet the resulting spirit, nurtured for over a quarter-century in select ex-bourbon and ex-sherry casks, emerged as a masterpiece of complexity. This single malt showcases the distillery's signature floral and fruity elegance, enriched by decades of gentle maturation in the cool Highland climate.
🍾 About the Producer
Founded in 1843 by William Matheson on the tranquil shores of the Dornoch Firth near Tain in the Scottish Highlands, Glenmorangie is celebrated globally as a pioneer of Highland single malt Scotch whisky. The distillery is famed for possessing the tallest copper pot stills in Scotland, whose soaring swan necks allow only the lightest and purest vapours to ascend, yielding an exceptionally delicate and floral new-make spirit. Utilizing mineral-rich water from the protected Tarlogie Springs and premium Scottish barley, Glenmorangie has long led the industry in revolutionary wood management and bespoke cask finishing under the stewardship of Moët Hennessy. Their expansive portfolio ranges from the quintessential, citrus-and-vanilla-laden 'The Original' to intricate, chocolate-malt innovations like Signet and highly collectible rare vintage expressions.
