The Glenlivet has been distilled for pleasure since 1824. Our founder, George Smith, believed whisky as the ultimate pleasure should be made unhurried, as time and care created the highest quality and flavoursome product. George’s innovative thinking, technique and the best ingredients created a whisky that set the standard for the region of Speyside.
Silky, sweet, rich and intense… Some of the rarest of our whiskies, all of which have been aged for at least 25 years, this is a batch-produced whisky finished in first-fill sherry butts. Our team of experts individually selects each cask and monitors the whisky in its finishing process to make sure the Sherry casks add the subtlest sherry tones to an intense, silky and elegant whisky.
Tasting Note
Nose: Intense, deep and creamy. Exotic oakiness mixed with dark chocolate with scents of dried sultanas
Palate: Sweet at first, evolving into indulgent spice with a medley of ginger, cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg
Finish: Incredibly long, rich and balanced
