The Challenge
In 2023, a multi-agency project was launched to showcase the collaboration between Master Distiller Dr Bill Lumsden and Japanese botanical artist Azuma Makoto. Together, they crafted a remarkable, limited-edition whisky in the Glenmorangie Prestige line.
Dr Bill Lumsden had spent over 23 years perfecting the whisky in Tain, which featured complex notes of flowers, rain-soaked moss, and earthy tones. Inspired by these flavours, Azuma Makoto returned to Tokyo to create a botanical masterpiece that now adorns the whisky’s packaging. And so, Multiply was brought in to help tell the story of this unique whisky and art partnership.
