The Glenlivet Single Malt Scotch Whisky 12 Year Old, 750mL Bottle
This whisky has been called a lot of things in its time: smooth, fruity, complex, sophisticated, entertaining, classic. The Original Malt Whisky Almanac says: “A first-class malt. One of the most popular malts in the world – deservedly so. The Glenlivet has been breaking conventions to and scotch traditions since 1824. From tropical, rum-finished liquid to being the first in the US to finish a scotch in cognac casks, discover The Glenlivet’s range of whiskies that continue to break new ground in the single malt space. The Glenlivet 12YO is smooth, balanced, fruity… an invitation to indulgence in liquid form. Representing The Glenlivet’s signature style, this classic malt is first matured in traditional oak, before spending time in American oak casks which impart notes of vanilla and gives the whisky it’s distinctive smoothness.
The Glenlivet is the single malt that started it all. It is the oldest legal distillery in the parish of Glenlivet, Speyside Scotland. It was founded in 1824 and has operated almost continuously since.
