Whisky Inspired by Japan | Von Japan inspirierter Whisky

“Tokyo has always been one of my favourite places. I am fascinated by the contradictions between its busy streets and peaceful gardens, ancient and modern buildings, multi-­sensory experiences and culture. The years spent in Tokyo made me think about whether I could capture my experiences in the form of whisky," Dr. Bill Lumsden, Director of Distill­ation and Whisky Production at Glenmorangie Distilleries, describes the birth of this new product.

Enjoyment with All the Senses

The new beverage combines tones of pepper with bitter ­cherries and coconut, while the delicious taste of orange peel spills in the mouth with hints of incense and sweet oak. ­Finally, there are the classic flavours of Glenmorangie whisky – tangerine, almond and marzipan. Rare Japanese ­Mizunara oak barrels play a key role in the preparation of this unique whisky. In addition, A Tale of Tokyo is encased in a unique packaging design, the creator of which is the famous Japanese artist Yamaguchi Akira.
