Description

The delicate and complex character of the 12 Year Old derives from the height and width of stills at The Glenlivet Distillery. This expression is matured in a mixture of cask types, including American and European Oak. Maturation in American oak imparts vanilla notes and gives the whisky its distinct smoothness. The mineral rich water from Josie’s Well ensures the best possible results during mashing and fermenting to form the flavours that define this expression.

Colour: Light, Golden Nose: Perfectly balanced fruity aroma with delicate floral fragrance and vanilla/honey sweetness Taste: Classically Speyside, a soft smooth balance of sweet summer fruits and the floral fragrance of spring flowers. Finish: Lingering and gentle

Aromas are sweet and smoky with citrus, campfire and honeysuckle. Slightly sweet in the mouth, the texture is round and soft, pillow like. Warm spice flavors are layered with vanilla, oatmeal cookies, and wood coals. Mild and smooth.Vibrant gold with orange highlights, fruity scent of apples and pears plus a whiff of vanilla. Soft, velvety feel. This is a pleasant and drinkable Scotch, but the flavors are relatively muted. It mixes well with other flavors, making it a good contender for cocktails. Good value. — K.N.
