The Glenlivet 18yr Old Single Malt Whisky

The Glenlivet 18 year old is the perfect expression of age and elegance. The rich palate of the 18 Year Old is the result of a combination of several different cask types. The Glenlivet Master Distiller Alan Winchester has a wealth of quality casks to choose from when creating this complex expression, with American and European Oak, first and second fill, all playing their parts. European Oak imparts spicy hints and brings additional complexity. First-fill American Oak adds tropical fruitiness.When George Smith established The Glenlivet Distillery in 1824, his single Malt Whisky reflected his conviction that only the best would do and was acclaimed as the highest assurance of quality. Age often brings a bit more body and the profusion of heavily sherried whiskies from the region exhibit superb power.nThough a comparatively small appellation, Speyside has, by some distance, the vast majority of Scotch whisky distilleries.
