The Glenlivet Captain's Reserve Whisky

Pretty impressive. Not your usual Scotch but I doubt they made it to be usual. Love the sweet notes with the Cognac.

If you like whisky tinged ( tainted ?) with brandy this might be for you.

I did not much like it, I will stick with the 12 & 18 thanks

What a smooth flawless whisky .very subtle flavours no burn. It's the 14 year repackaged . Better than the 12 but I love that too.

Tasting notes are actually pretty accurate, even the chocolate. Something a bit different.

Decent purchase for around £30.

Nose: Sherried, but somewhat putrid. Reminiscent of Balvenie. Light butterscotch.

Palate: Cherry. Hard boiled candies. Hint of cloves.

After: Balanced dark cherry flavor.

Not what I was hoping for having been a long time enthusiast of the Glenlivet distillery. It’s quite thin, tastes like a fairly young bottling (8-10 years?) reasonably smooth but lacks depth and has a short and quite dry finish. I was hoping for more body and an oily finish but on the plus side there is plenty of flavour to identify although nothing has much dominance. I won’t buy another bottle, I’ll be sticking to the excellent Glenlivet 15 the future.

Glad I only paid £25. Would not repurchase. Big rum and raisin ice-cream nose. Thin, weak, watery to the mouth. Unrounded, no depth, little finish. Easy drinking, inoffensive and pleasant for those who know nothing of good whisky.

Lovely easy to drink malt. Had a nip in a bar once and couldn't order anything else for the rest of the night, it is THAT good! Beautiful nose and wonderful finish. Highly recommend anyone (especially those that prefer the smoother whiskys) to give this a try

The best from The Glenlivet family without doubt . A beautiful nose , smooth taste and lovely finish . More than highly recommended

I bought 6 bottles over the months and l need to re-stock. I'm left with under 2 bottles. One of the best acquired taste among the Glenlivet range.
