Суммаризация отзывов

Отзывы на этот релиз резко расходятся: одни находят его необычным и интересным, другие — молодым, несбалансированным и похожим скорее на джин, чем на виски.
развернуть подробно
В отзывах доминирует необычный «лесной» профиль с хвойными и травянистыми нотами — сосновые иглы, можжевельник, тимьян, розмарин, мята, кориандр, иногда лёгкий дым и влажная лесная подстилка. Часто это вызывает ассоциации с джином, а не с виски, вплоть до прямых сравнений с джином в носу и во вкусе. Часть дегустаторов считает эксперимент удачным и интересным, отмечая сладость, мёд, карамель, цитрус, солод, дуб и хорошее развитие после открытия бутылки, а также гармонию и мощный финиш. Другие называют результат неудачным: вкус плоский, тело слабое, финиш короткий или сухой, присутствуют горечь, «парфюмерность», «мыльная» нота и резкий алкогольный тон; звучат оценки вплоть до «провала», «не виски», «джина среди виски», сравнений с банным маслом и лечебной конфетой от кашля, а также заявления, что это худший Glenmorangie из пробованных. Отдельно критикуют цену: при стоимости около 80–90 евро его оценивают как максимум повседневный виски за ~46 евро, сомневаясь в оправданности цены; упоминаются также чрезмерная «древесная»/щепковая нота и странный резиновый оттенок. Мнения о балансе и качестве расходятся: одни хвалят деликатность, мягкость и традиционное хайлендское солодовое ядро, другие указывают на дисбаланс, молодость, спиртуозность и отсутствие сладости и дуба.

OK, this is a typical Glenmorangie. It cannot deny its origins either in the nose or in the mouth. Like most Glenmos, it remains soft and round. The alcohol tingles a little in the mouth. All in all, this special bottling does not offer any particularly outstanding aromas compared to the standard 10. However, the 10 also has the big problem that it is watered down to 40% ABV. This is different here, there is more pressure on the boiler. Yes, spruce needles and moss as well as herbs can be detected on the nose. The name says it all. But there is not much more than that compared to the 10er Additional impressions. However, in my opinion it doesn't have any off notes and it doesn't seem too bitter either. The Quinta Ruban or the Nectar d'or are of a different caliber, in a positive sense. This would be a decent everyday whisky, with no special aromas, no rough edges. The finish is medium long. An all-round relaxing dram, it would cost around 46 EUR at most. But 80 - 90 EUR? No thanks.

Hmmm.. I don't quite understand the "criticism" here. This Glenmorangie is somehow a typical example of Dr. Bill Lumdsen - and not necessarily his worst experiment. What have we had: wild yeast, sticky sweets, Caucasian oak (sorry, that was Ardbeg...)... yes, it's not a "typical", delicate Glenmorangie - the "botanicals" give the otherwise very clean distillate a freshness, in which Herbal note on the nose, which is quite refreshing and different; the oak, the maltiness and the vanilla of a good single malt are also very present. I would give a few deductions for the lack of balance - overall, the "History of the Forest" seems a bit smokey and unpolished. Overall, however, a rather successful experiment. And in times of Macallan Concept or fine cocoa, there is simply no need to rant about the price-performance ratio...

I’m shocked at how much I liked this. There’s a really interesting mix of flavours here. Despite the juniper, this tastes nothing like gin to me. It’s more like an ex-Islay-cask Ardmore (ashy smoke, herbs, mineral, greenness) with a bit of the woodsmoke and tart character of certain American single malts. It’s fascinating to drink, so much more memorable than the other two Tales, and pretty tasty to boot. If you’re ever tempted by that famous Glenmorangie Swamp Oak bottling, this will get you some of the way there.

The nose is interesting, quite fresh, with mellow lemon and pine needles. Sweet dusty smoke. Nice oak, sandy side, red fruits, wild strawberries, blackberries, but it's a little unbalanced. A certain minerality, in a dry environment. In the mouth, it's very average, the alcohol stands out, some forest fragrances, but barely. Conifers. A little gasoline. The finale disappears very quickly, it has not yet arrived that it has already left. Bark, some nuts. Heather. The idea was good, but the whisky is less so. I liked the nose, despite some faults, but the mouth and the finish seemed to me to be of poor value. https://ilikesky2020.blogspot.com/2023/06/glenmorangie-tale-of-forest.html

In preparation for a tasting I led at Angels' Share in November 2022. Based on only one tasting - therefore not rated. Although it wasn't a very pleasant experience for most of the tasting attendees, I enjoyed it quite a bit. Definitely the most of all the "A Tale of ..." I've tasted so far. Maybe because I'm a gin fan. ;)
Eisenzipfel Expert Junior 78 23 sep 2025 6:20 pm
This bottling from the Tale of series lives up to its name in a rather simple way. From the outset, the whisky is very woody and extremely wood-chippy, reminding me of a visit to a carpenter and even more so of assembling a piece of furniture I purchased from the blue-yellow giant. The impressions and associations I associate with forests are largely lost, as is any substance or added value that would linger on the finish and beyond to properly celebrate the fairytale of the forest. A weakening whisky from the highly productive era of the whisky boom.
BadSwat Expert Junior 75 26 oct 2022 6:23 pm
The nose is fresh, almost dirty/alcoholic, unusual, not like whisky should be. Not like Glenmorangie at all. Blind I would have guessed this is some entry level NAS Islay Whisky. The taste reminds me of gin. You dont drink gin neat. Not worth the stress on the liver. Young, bitter, weird. Glad it was a sample. I love new ideas, the botanicals could have been great in my imagination. Not sure if I want to laugh or to cry thinking about the 80€ per bottle. Love Glenmorangie, hate this Release.

The noticeable alcohol content in the taste was disappointing, although it still allows you to easily determine exactly 46% even blindly. And even if I was just blind, I would have thought that this was some kind of smoke-maker from Mainland. The taste, unfortunately, is obviously alcoholic, so it doesn’t deserve any higher scores. 21 20 21 20

So I'm a real fan of the Glenmorangie Distillery. Nothing has disappointed me so far. The high stills have always ensured a particularly soft and well-balanced fabric. But this one... Sorry, that's nothing. Is Glenmorangie now also riding the wave of squeezing something into a bottle? Any new invention/experiment yet? Botanicals - it should have been clear to me. Not only does it smell like cheap gin, it also tastes the same. Without exaggerating, the worst Glenmorangie I've had in my glass so far. Luckily it was only a sample.

hs305 Connoisseur 84 29 oct 2022 8:32 pm
[October 2022] What a strange experiment! They flavoured the whisky by "smoking" the barley with woodland botanicals' scent, I find this completely weird. I love such experiments as such, but I am not sure if I like the outcome too... ...no, as a drinker I do not. This is a truly unique profile I never had in a dram before which reminds me more of (excellent) gin than of malt whisky - and exactly this is the problem: I am into malt whisky and not into gin (despite I enjoy an iced gin-tonic on hot summer days from time to time). Maybe I should add some tonic water to this dram - no, forget that idea!
нос · вкус · финиш
Нос84The colour is amber, and the nose is ... unusual (to state it neutral). The dominating aromas I rather found in (excellent) gin with juniper berries, pinecones and menthol. The malt's aromas hide cowardly in the background, obviously they are afraid of the unknown intruders into their world. It is both fresh and interesting, but at the same it is rather bitter and still a little immature. I like it for curiosity, but I do not really enjoy nosing.
Вкус85The taste is about the same with a truly unique flavours profile I never had in a malt before. Again, on the first sip it reminds me more of a gin than a malt but after some chewing the malt flavours (barley sugars, honey, florals) leave their hideaway. It tastes quite perfumy with these flavours, and I always associate perfumes with soapiness (in drams). No, this dram is not soapy but somehow my taste buds active this linkage. Not a taste to enjoy, but it is very funny to explore (not kidding).
Финиш82The dram arrives with a rather disappointing mouthfeel (for a Glenmorangie) on my palate with some warming impressions but almost no coating effects. Hence the finish is quite short, and it stays on the bitter side of the profile with both tannins and the strange "woodland scents". Water strengthens the strange flavours both in the nose and on the palate, so if you like these add some. I prefer it neat.
Ori_whisky_utopia Connoisseur 75 07 nov 2022 6:25 pm
Very unpleasant on the palate, despite its rather interesting and different smoky and ashy nose. It's flat, really lacks in body and the finish does not develop anywhere. I did not like this edition at all.
dongolzo81 Connoisseur 77 06 dec 2022 11:15 pm
Nose: green apple, lychee, initially also cheese and sweat, but that disappears again, pine, later very faint smoke, is that a heavily charred barrel or is it actually the distillate? I suspect the second. Little to no alcohol noticeable The longer in the glass, the more herbs and Allgäu mountain pine Taste: fairly mild beginning, yellow fruits, sweet, peaches, honeydew melon, also tart notes of sandalwood, sea buckthorn, subtle spiciness, something unspecifically ethereal Finish: stays mild and sweet, medium length at most Tip: Bourbon cask, 43-46%,,

Unfortunately I forgot to write a detailed review, so just off the top of my head. The whisky itself wasn't necessarily bad, but when I was tasting it I kept having associations with a pine needle bath oil additive, which really bothered me. From memory, I would give him even fewer points than the 80 points awarded at the time, but I'm afraid that wouldn't be fair or honest, hence the points awarded at the time.

The aroma and taste are fairly standard Glenmorangie flavors. I didn't detect any particularly strong herbal notes, but there was an extreme woody character—imagine the smell of wood shavings in a carpenter's workshop. There were also vague fruity and sweet notes, along with a noticeable alcohol flavor. Bill Leighton's experimental product's packaging and flavor descriptions were quite intriguing, but after drinking it, I don't think it's a success...
Sketchnl82 Member Senior 82 19 jul 2026 4:31 pm

Somehow an exciting whisky that also offers a lot of quality, but unfortunately I don't have the openness for its aromas today. Before this one I had a Ben Bracken NAS Speysider (WB162499) from Lidl which I gave 76 points. But I liked Ben Bracken's nose better at first. Nevertheless, I find it exciting what the whisky says: the "clou" was that Glenmorangie kilned the malt for this whisky using botanicals. And yes, the juniper used and also the pine needles have been transferred to the distillate and can be found in the nose and also on the palate. Of course, this also means that this is not a whisky aroma profile in the classic sense. If you want to describe it positively, you could say that this is an unconventional whisky. People who like all the new types of beer and beer experiments from all over the world ("hipsters") may also be interested in dealing with such whisky experiments and also have the patience to develop a taste for these aromas. I'm rather narrow minded and old-fashioned, but would still try a sample of this whisky again from time to time.
нос · вкус · финиш
Нос83The nose has very clear and prominent notes of gin botanicals; here indeed and especially juniper and pine needles. The texture of the whisky is very clean, creamy-oily and the distillate was really good, but I don't like the flavors in a whisky. Over time, the whisky develops a beautiful harmony and the aromas no longer seem so strange to me. Today and only with a small sample that's still too special for me. But the whisky has quality.
Вкус78The attack is round, voluminous and again there is a lot of juniper, wood and unfortunately also many aromas of "Booze". That's definitely too special for me for the first time and not really round either. This is where the experiment failed for me at the latest. In contrast to other whiskys, which I don't like, I drink the sample here, because the whisky itself is very good - apart from the aromas. It sounds weird, but that's how it tastes.
Финиш80The mouthfeel is very good, again confirming that the distillate (as with most Glenmorangie) was very good. The finish is medium at best and lingers with a dry note of wet pine needles.

Old_Oak Expert Junior 88 03 dec 2022 4:17 pm
A very interesting Glenmorangie. When the bottle is freshly opened, the aroma and taste are initially not round. With an alcoholic tinge and a hint of smoke like an HP or a Springbank. If you only have one sample to taste, you won't really realize its potential. After approx. 3-4 weeks in the opened bottle and a slightly reduced fill level, it has harmonized and impresses with a beautiful aroma and intense sweetness in the nose and mouth. A great mouthfeel and surprisingly powerful in the finish for a Glenmorangie with pleasant wood. No bitterness, no sharpness and that gentle smoke that you only perceive as an extension of the complexity. And no, I don't like gin... After a slight initial disappointment, I actually bought it again. A successful experiment for me!

Maltimex Expert Senior 70 05 dec 2022 10:07 am
A very interesting whisky for Glenmorangie. In this case, the forest marketing actually fits the contents of the bottle: At first glance, the whisky reminds me of damp moss and a humid coniferous forest. With a little more time, it swings very clearly in the direction of juniper and, in addition to impressions of coniferous trees, develops dominant gin aromas, so that after about 15 minutes in the glass it is more of a gin than a whisky. The malt is not very balanced - sweet aromas or a hint of acidity or oak aromas are not really to be found. You can definitely try this Glenmorangie - you really don't need a bottle for my taste, especially not at this price. The Glenmorangie house follows the marketing line of its parent company: Chick presented quantity, which is said to be very limited, instead of quality. Thumbs down. Without the price: 80/100 - with price: 60/100 - so here 70/100.

Batman Expert Junior 89 08 dec 2022 7:27 pm
This seems to be a very polarizing whisky. I like it though. I can see why some may find the flavours of the smoked botanicals offputting in this whisky - these flavours are not what I've found in any other whisky, ever. But for me, what balances this out is the sturdy, pleasantly bitter-orange-oak highland malty core that is definitely a traditional highland character. So when the two elements are infused - delicate spring-fresh botanicals with a traditional highland malt character, I found it makes for something very interesting and very enjoyable. I also found that this whisky seems to be very well matured - no spiky alcohol, and great development of flavour into the finish, similar to slightly older whiskies. Impressive for such a reasonably priced whisky. This is definitely a "delicate", "floral", "fresh" whisky so all of the above is delivered in a very gentle way - this is not a whisky that is in-your-face with any all-consuming power. Another reason why maybe some have rated this lower? I do think that this whisky could have been a monster if bottled at cask strength and non-chill-filtered. But that's not Glenmorangie's style I suppose, and I guess at this price it's a reasonable trade-off.

"INSPIRED BY THE EVERCHANGING NATURAL WONDER ENCOUNTRED WHILE WANDERING IN THE FOREST. Evoking the scents, sounds and sights of the forest, the single malt surrounds your senses with aromas of pine, juniper and coriander, laced with wisps of smoke. Then tastes of deep-green eucalyptus, lit by rays of bitter orange, drift to a slow, gently oaky finish." N: Young. The spirit stands out quite strongly with it's always yeasty aspect. It's quite interesting. Pinewood with honey. Grass and some watery oak. Some banana appears with bursts of vanilla and coconut. Wood spices, some smoke and juniper berries. (82) P: Old books. Hint of smoke. Grass and earth. Dust. Yeast and malt. Dry wood notes. Blue cheese. Some banana orange peel and anise. Pine wood and juniper again. Quite dry also. Not my cup of tea sorry. It's interesting but I can't say I'm intrigued or that I would want another dram. (78) F: Citrus thang, pine wood, anise, earthy and dry. No thank you. (77) I ain't saying that this is bad. All I say is that I don't like this. For some other it might be a great dram. "Fos fos szar szar fos szar fos." 82 / 78 / 77 = 79 pts / 100

Interesting Glenmorangie, the packaging certainly matches the content; even if I don't necessarily have to think of a walk in the forest. The flavors are unusual, not commonplace, and mostly difficult to define. Not bad in quality, but not entirely to my liking - 01/07/2023

Нос83Light and fine herbal aromas, pine needles, menthol, bergamot, a soapy, tart perfume note resonates that I would classify as coriander, cold bath additive, chocolate with pieces of fruit (raspberry), the empty glass provides notes of dried herbs and multivitamin
Вкус82Initially tart, grassy, woody, sweetness comes quickly, malt sweetness, block chocolate, herbs, pine needles, soapy, oily, very creamy mouthfeel
Финиш81Medium length, dry, pine needles, soapy, lavender, oak

Honestly horrible. Not sure the use case, tastes more like gin than scotch. Flavors do not go well together.

Can be done, does not have to be. For gin drinkers looking for an alternative. Will definitely go well in a cocktail.

Нос82In the nose, initially the pleasant thick fruit wall typical of Glenmorangie on pear, apricot and orange. Over time, however, the botanicals used are inevitably added, giving it a light gin touch, as well as pine needles and wild berries. Unfortunately, this makes it look a bit spritty and cheap to me (I'm not a gin friend). But it may be that it's just a matter of the head.
Вкус80Here, too, the herbal, unusual forest notes follow a mild, creamy, fruity start. Unfortunately strange.
Финиш79Rather short, alcoholic and spicy.

S 7 Tasted blind. Complex and very volatile, getting better as it breathes. As I was told, the malt used here was kilned with juniper berries. A very experimental and unique one (+), definitely worth a try. [78-82] I'll gladly welcome another dram. N 24 Oily. Lightly rubbery (-). Cardboard. 10 minutes in, fruits, wet malt, old oak. P 26 A bit vegetal at first. Then slowly becomes fruity and smoky. Now getting dirty malt and pine wood. F 25 Mid, slightly dry finish. Light smoke lingers.

INSPIRED BY THE EVER-CHANGING WONDER OF NATURE YOU MEET WHILE WALKING IN THE FOREST. Evoking the smells, sounds and sights of the forest, the single malt surrounds your senses with aromas of pine, juniper and coriander laced with wisps of smoke. Then the flavors of deep green eucalyptus, illuminated by rays of bitter orange, drift into a slow, softly oaky finish. The color is deep gold
