Description
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.
Wine Enthusiast 93 points – TOP 100 SPIRITS OF 2019 – Bright copper in the glass, the sweet aromas suggest maple and allspice. The light, drying palate echoes that maple hint alongside grapefruit peel tones, finishing with a flurry of baking spice and mouthwatering lemon peel. A drop of water coaxes a gentle waft of smoke. Overall a delicate, ethereal sipper..December/2019
Ultimate Beverage Challenge 94 points – Ethereal candied apple opens the aroma profile of this remarkably rich liquid. Dense with field blossoms and clean straw, dried apricots and an an increasingly dry mid-palate into finish that calls to mind walnut skins and darker stone fruits. A succulent balance between sun kissed grains and beautiful wood tones. – 2019 Ultimate Spirits Challenge (Excellent, Highly Recommended) (Great Value).April/2019
