Glenlivet 12YO Single Malt Scotch Whisky 700mL

In the beginning the remote and isolated Livet valley made an ideal location for illicit distillation. This is where The Glenlivet founder George Smith learned his craft. Hidden away from the Customs Officers and soldiers amongst the hills and abundant springs, George had time to distil slowly making a whisky that would become world renowned. To this day, The Glenlivet remains the benchmark that all other Speyside single malts are measured against. The Glenlivet 12YO, known as the single malt that started it all, harks from the oldest legal distillery in Speyside, Scotland, where the stills are lantern shaped with long, narrow necks. The full and rich aromas of baked pastries, orchard fruit and toffee continue on the palate of this readily approachable malt. A hint of oak, from time spent maturing in both American and European casks, builds on the warming palate which finishes layered with dark licorice notes and dried citrus peel.
