    The Glenlivet Captain's Reserve

    An intriguing release from The Glenlivet, been finished in ex-Cognac casks for a ‘raisin-rich’ intensity, along with citrus notes and a creamy smoothness. Whisky finished in Cognac casks is not a common thing, so we're particularly interested in this expression. The name comes from Captain William Smith Grant, great-grandson of George Smith, Glenlivet’s founder.

    Tasting Note by The Producer

    Nose

    Bursting with sweet and fruity aromas. Rich in honey and apricot jam, with notes of sweet cinnamon bread and a subtle sensation of spicy liquorice.

    Palate

    Succulent flavours of mandarins in syrup, ripe poached pears and chocolate-dipped raisins.

    Finish

    Incredibly smooth and luscious.

    One of the best

    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.

    Master of Malt Customer May 19, 2020

    Would buy again

    Enjoyed it. Will try more in the Glenlivet range

    Not a patch on a well aged The Glenlivet. Avoid.

    Agreed it is very smooth - luscious describes it well. But it is simply too sweet. Has sugar or honey been added? No way near the delight of a well aged The Glenlivet. Will not be buying this again.

    Beautiful

    Truly stunning. A really delicate blend of flavours and so smooth with a small measure of ice

    Master of Malt Customer Nov 14, 2019

    Not great not lousy either

    Smooth but pretty thin. Does not go very well with water.
