A beautiful single cask Glenlivet, which was distilled on the 6th July 1994 before it was aged in cask number 4014 (a first fill butt) for 17 years before bottling at natural cask strength on the 14th November 2011. It was named Josie after the underground spring that provides pure mountain water to the distillery. It is hard and mineral-rich and this accounts for some of The Glenlivet's character.
Sweet and creamy with notes of rich fruitcake, topped up with plenty of sherry. Notes of dates, walnut loaf, hints of cooked bananas, morello cherry and thick malt.
A sweet, rich palate offering a creamy core of malt and marzipan, alongside notes of bitter Seville orange marmalade, winter spices and aniseed.
Good length, trailing off on spices and barley sugar.
