In 1583 a Spanish Armada was rounding Scotland as it fled from the English Navy. Legend has it that one of the boats in the fleet was sunk in the Tayne Firth near the distillery (now The Dornoch Firth) and that many of its survivors settled in Scotland. This whisky pays homage to those men and their stricken vessel, by putting a Spanish twist on Glenmorangie’s classic character. Buy Glenmorangie Tayne Online today!

As part of its Legends Collection which is available only in duty free, Glenmorangie has created a non-age statement expression in homage to a 16th century Spanish Galleon. It was said to have sunk in Dornoch Firth in Tain (a.k.a. Firth of Tayne) off Scotland’s coast near the distillery, after its skirmish with the British navy. The expression was created from a unique selection of Amontillado sherry casks, an unusual choice for a Scotch finish. The packaging pays homage to both the oak casks in which it was aged and the wooden designs that would have been found on the ship.
