Nestled in the picturesque Scottish Highlands, the Glenmorangie Distillery has been producing exquisite single malt whiskies since 1843. Renowned for their commitment to traditional craftsmanship and pioneering spirit, Glenmorangie is synonymous with uncompromising quality. The distillery’s unique copper pot stills, known as the “Glenmorangie stills,” are the tallest in Scotland, allowing for an exceptionally smooth and refined spirit.

To create Glenmorangie 14 Year Old – The Quinta Ruban, a carefully selected base spirit is matured for a minimum of 14 years in American white oak ex-bourbon casks. Following this initial maturation, the whisky is transferred to specially handpicked ruby port pipes from Portugal’s Quintas, renowned for their exceptional quality. This additional maturation in the port casks imparts an intriguing range of flavours and a beautiful depth of colour to the whisky.
