Product Detail

Glenmorangie's A Tale Of Tokyo is the distillery's exciting forth release in its 'Tale of…' series – and the first to be part-aged in Japanese mizunara oak casks. Combining bright, bold flavours with soft sweetness, this limited-edition, experimental single malt whisky is as full of sensory contrasts as the city of Tokyo itself.
Not only is it a unique, imaginative release, it's award-winning, too, having been given the rare accolade of Double Gold – where all members of the judging panel give a gold-medal rating – at the 2023 San Francisco World Spirits Competition.

TASTING NOTES

Appearance: Bronze.

Aroma: Powerfully herbal on the nose, with hints of toffee contrasted by incense and saddle soap, followed by a resinous note and a touch of cedar wood.

Taste: A peppery mouthfeel leads into notes of tangy oranges and bitter cherries alongside fennel and chewy oak. The finish is long and gently nutty, with hints of almond, mandarin, ground white pepper and more wood resin.

FOOD PAIRINGS

For starter: Serve alongside almond sesame seaweed crisps – the sweet and savoury contrast echoes that of the whisky – and creamy scallop sashimi with shisho leaf.

For Main: Mains that contrast umami and sweetness – such as hitsumabushi (sliced grilled eel served on rice with an assortment of condiments and garnishes) and sukiyaki (Japanese hotpot) – work very well.

For Dessert: Choose Japanese desserts combining sweet and savoury ingredients, such as white sesame and red bean mochi.

PERFECT SERVE

Enjoy with your favourite mixer, neat, with a little water or on the rocks
