This 15 year old expression from The Glenlivet, was matured in French Limousin Oak casks. Limousin Oak is a popular choice for maturation of Cognac.
The nose is rich and oaked. There are notes of chewy resinous wood with a well-balanced acidity. Fudge and Madeira with apple crumble with calvados.
The palate is full and rich with winter spice; cinnamon and cloves, thick oak with developing aridity.
The finish is long and dry with a peppery note.
“I would recommend you leave the fools comment but censor the star rating. I almost didnt buy it because of 1 star review. Then I thought to myself, is it possible not to like a 15 Glenlivet? Jonnie ”

Took a taste with a water by. Loved the finish in the mouth, was tingly and slightly fruity. I am used to a peaty, smokey Scotch but I believe I have been smitten by the 15 year! A thankyou to the master crafter! I will buy the 15 year again!
A wonderfully smooth spirit with a fruity body and a very pleasant, sweet finish. Definitely a cut above Southern Comfort or Jim Beam and totally worth the additional cost (roughly double).
I enjoyed it very much
Beautifully smooth scotch. One of my favorites.
Lot's of lovely flavours in this and very smooth too...almost tastes Irish rather than Scotch! Has had a big price hike recently though which is disappointing.
