Distiller Notes
Vibrant amber-gold. The nose is fresh and beautifully light, sherried fruit combined with a tempting spicy sweetness and a int of sappy oak. The palate is full-bodied with a delightfully sherried fruit, oak and delicious sweet sensations. The finish is long and flavorsome, with a lingering spiciness.

"Soothing and seamless on the nose and palate with chewy toffee, molasses, nougat, almond butter, vanilla fudge, cinnamon spice, and nutmeg, along with gentle tobacco notes emerging later on the palate. A pleasing dry finish offsets the sweeter notes. A delicious whisky from beginning to end." Whisky Advocate.

The Glenlivet 18-year-old Scotch whisky is a premium choice in the Glenlivet lineup. Tasters fall in love with its enticing honey color and smooth, pleasant finish that stands out among other Scotch whisky choices. A dynamic spirit preferred for its depths of aroma and taste, The Glenlivet 18-year-old Scotch marks the middle of the Glenlivet options ranging from 15- to 21-year-distillations. The 18-year-old whisky boasts a unique flavor palate with sweet elements like oranges and nougat along with the spiciness of fennel and spearmint. This 40% ABV single-malt Scotch whisky hails from Speyside and enjoys extra time in the refining process. The result is a Scotch with amazing complexity that has become a favorite among consumers and critics alike. It is no wonder that the label has won multiple international awards. Appreciate The Glenlivet on its own in a whisky glass to bring out its subtle nuances, which range from fruity to oaky.

Made with water from the same crystal-clear mountain streams, in the same cold, pure air, The Glenlivet Founder’s Reserve is as smooth and fruity as the whisky that first ran from the original copper pot stills. These unique, lantern-shaped copper stills, designed by the man himself, are not the only important tools in our distilling legacy. The traditional oak casks in which we mature the whisky give each expression its own distinct characteristics. When George Smith began distilling, The Glenlivet had no age statements and he selected whisky from casks of a range of ages. We have replicated this freedom with The Glenlivet Founder’s Reserve, selecting whisky from a variety of traditional aged oak casks. Then, to lend a modern twist to the flavour of the expression, Master Distiller Alan Winchester marries together a selection of the aged oak casks and American first-fill oak casks. American first-fill oak casks are those that have never before been used to mature whisky. Selective use of these casks provides a smooth, creamy sweetness that mingles harmoniously with the delicate flavours and complex fruity tones already present in the whisky.

The Glenlivet Spectra is a selection of three mysterious single malts, each a reinterpretation of our smooth & fruity house style.

Fresh, vibrant, and beautifully complex. A clean, malty foundation accentuated by bright complex fruit, delicate spice, dried flowers, and gentle honeyed vanilla notes that linger on the palate. This is a wonderful whisky which is very versatile, but I can only imagine what it would taste like at 46% and unchill-filtered like the wood finish expressions." 93 Whisky Advocate

"Aromas: mandarin, lemon, apple, pear and peach trees. Add to this the scent of vanilla ice cream, and herbal notes of geranium and wild mint. Add water and release lemony bergamot, apricot and mandarin. Floral notes of geranium, sweet honeysuckle and piquant narcissus mix with mint and the herbal essence of eucalyptus, nutmeg and ginger. Taste: creamy vanilla slips like liquid silk over the tongue as peaches and cream, mandarins and lemons effervesce in the mouth. Finish: The charming sweetness of delicious juices is left on the tongue (Producer's Tasting Notes) 43% abv - Fresh Fruit and Vanilla -

"When compared to the 10 year old, this one’s richer, with darker fruit and more caramelized sweet notes, paired with accentuated dried wood spice, while the 10 year old is more vibrant and floral. Like the 10 year old, there’s good balance here." Whisky Advocate

Aroma: Characterised by notes of autumn harvest festival. A rich, resinous quality of nuts joins a crisp toffee sweetness of creme brulee, merging with creamy vanilla. Hints of vibrant oranges & lemons are found, followed by walnut, honeycomb and dates. With water, 18 Years Old reveals a rich oaken, balsamic character with notes of apricot and hazelnut. Palate: silky texture, rounded flavor with grapefruit & orange. Also, honey and creamy malt segue into a warm nuttiness of hazelnuts and walnuts from the Oloroso sherry casks in which the whisky is matured. Finish: Lingering with a subtle sweetness of dried fruit and the nutty dryness of sherry. (Producer's Notes) 43%abv - Malt and Honey -

Elegant but full bodied this whisky has spent ten years maturing in American white oak ex-bourbon casks before being extra-matured for a further two years in Oloroso and PX Sherry casks from Jerez in Spain. Lasanta is Gaelic for warmth and passion, a reminder not just of the Spanish provenance of these Oloroso sherry butts, but also a reflection of this expression's lusciously soft texture and deep, enticingly sweet aroma.

Nose: Warm spices mix with smooth chocolate-covered raisins, honeycomb and caramel toffee. Palate: Deliciously sweet sherry flavoured sultanas, orange segments, walnuts and butterscotch combine to create complex warm spices. Finish: Long and satisfying finish with spiced orange and chocolate covered hazelnuts. (Producer's Notes) - Rich Fruit and Spice -
