Glenmorangie Signet, arguably the most unique whisky in the core range, debuted in 2008. It is a blend of whisky distilled from local barley, aged for up to 30 years, and whisky distilled from chocolate malt (approx. 20%), aged for approximately 10 years. Chocolate malt is used in the production of dark beers such as porters and stout. The whisky's name refers to a design carved into stone by the Picts who ruled northern Scotland in the 9th century, which adorns almost every Glenmorangie bottle. Glenmorangie Signet has won several significant medals and awards, most recently a gold medal in 2017 at the International Spirit Challenge.
