At the heart of The Glenlivet's most prestigious expressions is The Sample Room, a place of continuous improvement and creativity. This is where our makers spend their time crafting, tasting, and refining our whisky until they achieve the finest balance of flavor. The Glenlivet 18 Year Old is finished through a combination of first- and second-fill American oak casks, which add tropical fruitiness to the liquid, and ex-Sherry oak casks, which add a spicy complexity. The result is a gorgeous single malt scotch whisky that is complex, yet elegant and balanced. This whisky has won more awards than any other expression, a true example of the exceptional quality and taste of The Glenlivet. On the nose, enjoy a fragrant, elegant and complex expression with sweet oakiness, rich sweet fruit and toffee notes. An intensely complex balance of sweet spice and indulgent juicy orange burst in your palate, leading to a crescendo of chocolate-dipped raisins with a long and lingering finish.
