Places mentioned

Islay, Scotland, United Kingdom
"Ardbeg is on the island of Islay in the west of Scotland, but the Glenmorangie distillery is on the drier east coast."
Tain, Scotland, United Kingdom
"I was happy to investigate what distinguishes an OU kosher malt from, well, a non-OU kosher malt by visiting the Tain distillery where the Glenmorangie whiskies are produced."
Missouri, United States
"Aged in casks that Glenmorangie has specially designed from oaks on the leeside slopes of the Ozarks and then leased to bourbon companies for a single use, the Astar packs a pungent bite."
