Description
Founded in 1824, the Glenlivet Distillery holds the distinction of Scotland’s longest-running distillery, having produced whisky almost continuously since opening its doors, only undergoing a brief hiatus in World War 2 when supplies of barley became too scarce for commercial production. In the post-war period, the distillery grew rapidly, intent on supplying the world’s drinkers with their expressions, eventually allowing them to claim the title of the world’s second-biggest selling single malt brand with their own equally impressive catalog of Speyside style Scotch.
Among these is the Glenlivet 18-Year Scotch Whisky – a well-aged single malt offering boasting excellent complexity and depth that makes it ideal for neat sipping. After being distilled from 100% malted Scottish barley, the whisky is then left to mature in a combination of used American and European oak, where it stays for nearly two decades, slowly developing its flavors.
The aromas of this single malt scotch include butterscotch, honey, and a hint of spice. On the palate, it offers flavors of dried fruit and toffee with a subtle hint of chocolate. Enjoy this exquisite Scotch whisky neat, on the rocks, or with a splash of water. The Glenlivet 18-Year Scotch Whisky is a perfect addition to any whisky collection.
A recipient of the double gold medal at the 2013 San Francisco World Spirits Competition, the Glenlivet 18-Year Scotch Whisky is one bottle that certainly needs no introduction, especially to long-time fans of Speyside Scotch.
