The Glenlivet 15-Year-Old Single Malt Whisky 40% 70cl
Estimated Price: £52.69
The Glenlivet 15-Year-Old is a single malt Scotch whisky matured to a 40% ABV strength, known for its rich and exotic flavour profile. It gains its distinctive character through selective maturation that includes ageing a portion of the spirit in French oak casks sourced from the Dordogne region. This Limousin oak, traditionally used for cognac, allows deep wood interaction which imparts a pleasing spiciness balanced by fruity and nutty notes with sweet almond hints.
Produced in Scotland’s Speyside region since 1824, The Glenlivet is a historic distillery credited as the first legal distillery in its parish. Its whisky has established a lasting reputation worldwide for quality single malts. This 15-year-old expression is versatile for drinking neat, on the rocks, or as a component in cocktails.
Awarded Gold at the 2024 International Spirit Challenge, it represents a premium whisky that combines traditional Scotch craftsmanship with a refined maturation process. Bottled at 70cl, it balances complexity and smoothness suitable for whisky enthusiasts looking for a mature, well-crafted single malt.
