Product Description

The Glenlivet 18 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky is a sophisticated and refined expression that epitomises the perfect harmony between age and elegance. Crafted by the renowned Glenlivet distillery, this exceptional whisky is the result of meticulous ageing and a masterful blend of cask types, making it an outstanding choice for whisky enthusiasts.

Aged for 18 years, this whisky undergoes a unique maturation process in a combination of American and European oak casks, both first and second fill. The European oak adds complexity with subtle spicy notes, while the first-fill American oak imparts vibrant tropical fruit flavours. The result is a whisky that offers a rich, layered profile, with bursts of sweet orange, rich fruit, and toffee on the palate. The finish is long and warming, leaving traces of raisins and spice that linger, inviting you to savour every drop.

The Glenlivet 18 Year Old is an excellent example of the artistry of Master Distiller Alan Winchester, whose selection of casks ensures a balanced, complex flavour profile that is both elegant and memorable. With its old gold and apricot hue, this whisky is as pleasing to the eye as it is to the palate.

Perfect for sipping neat or with a splash of water, The Glenlivet 18 Year Old is a fantastic pairing with rich, savoury dishes such as fillet mignon and foie gras. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or simply enjoying the finer things in life, this whisky is a standout choice.
