Commercial Description

Over the course of 18 years, our 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.

Flavour: Ripe citrus, winter spice.
Nose: Fragrant, elegant, complex with a sweet oakiness, rich sweet fruit and toffee aromas.
Palate: Smooth and wonderfully balanced. Burst of spices and bitter oranges drying out on oaky notes.
Finish: Long and lingering, hints of raisins and spice.
