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.
“Wonderful flavour and smooth as silk. Highly recommend this malt.”

Pretty disappointing and rather bland with little character. It's perfectly drinkable but feels expensive for what it is.
One of my personal favorites. Perfect for a dinner/party, a gift, or if you just want to enjoy a drink by yourself. One of those bottles you just can't go wrong with
Easy going & smooth. One of my favorites.
This is my go to non Islay whisky. It is smooth with plenty of flavour. I wish it was greater than 40%.
Absolutely fantastic for the price. I really really enjoy this whisky. Better than many 70 or 80 quid bottles I've tried. Love it.
