Tasting Notes

Details

Nose: Delicate estery notes initially (sweet and fresh) with a hint of well toasted malt. Fruity elements develop (ripe gooseberries) with a hint of aniseed. Palate: Sweet and creamy (toffee) with a hint of ripe summer fruits. A nice hint of charred wood lingers with a mouth warming finish.

Distillery

Glenlivet Distillery

Glenlivet Single Malt Whiskey

Having out-grown his distillery at Upper Drumin George Smith built a new distillery in 1858 at Minore just short distance upstream of the River Livet and which he opened the following year and named Glenlivet Distillery. During the 1850s the Edinburgh firm of Andrew Usher produced the first vatting of malt whiskey from a single distillery using a number of different vintages of Glenlivet whiskey. Following expansion in 2010 this distillery is now equipped with fourteen stills making it one of the largest malt whiskey distilleries in Scotland. The range includes Glenlivet Founders Reserve and Nadurra.
