Description

The exceptional character of The Glenlivet drink is clear, even before maturing in barrels begins. This whiskey is still distilled in exactly the same way as almost 200 years ago. This happens in the narrow lantern-shaped copper kettles that were designed by the founder, George Smith. For The Glenlivet Founder’s Reserve, the expert selection of barrels has a positive effect on the distinctive fruity flavors of The Glenlivet. The traditional oak barrels are complemented with the use of unused American barrels that give a hint of creamy sweets. This creates an extraordinarily good balance and subtle malt.
