Say it ain't so, Glenmorangie...
News has it that the board of directors of Glenmorangie plc (owner of the Ardbeg, Glenmorangie and Glen Moray distilleries) has recommended that the company be sold to Louis Vuitton Moët Hennessy, and that this sale will probably be finalized by the end of the year. The sale amount is estimated to be in the neighbourhood of 300 million British Pounds.
With the former Seagram Scotch distillery holdings having already passed to Pernod Ricard, this latest transaction would seem to cement an increasing presence of French corporations in the Scotch whisky industry. Anyone in the mood for Champagne-finished Ardbeg?
