The Glenlivet 18 Year Old

$195.00
DESCRIPTION

AVB: 40%.         Bottle: 700ml

Over the course of 18 years,  Master Distiller, Alan Winchester takes this expression through a combination of cask types, including both first and second-fill American oak (for tropical fruitiness) and ex-sherry oak (for spicy complexity).

The result of this deft navigation of the distilling arts is a gorgeous single malt scotch whisky that is complex, yet elegant and balanced. The Glenlivet 18 Year Old has won more awards than any other expression; every bottle is a true example of the quality and taste of The Glenlivet and deserves pride of place in your cabinet… perhaps to be held back for a fitting occasion? It is, after all, crafted to impress.

Nose:    Rich fruit, toffee

Palate:   Ripe citrus, winter spice, Balanced, bursts of sweet orange

Finish:   Lingering, sweet almond, spice
