The Glenlivet
Scotland
Single Malt
This excellent 18 year old single malt Scotch whisky from Glenlivet is a classic Speyside dram, matured in a combination of first and second fill American oak and sherry casks. It also won two golds at the International Wine and Spirits Competition.
Quite big and well-rounded. There are notes of chewy sultanas and Sherried peels, barley sugars and toasty cereals with petals and apple blossom. A touch of fudge and gentle wisps of smoke.
Full and rich with notes of chewy, tannic oak. Manuka honey and walnut with Cox’s apples and orange peels. Cut herbs - fennel and spearmint.
Long and dry with a spicy oak note.

This is my very first bottle of single malt whisky. I used to drink blended whisky, the usual Jack Daniel No.7, Black lable, Chivas 12..... etc. Ever since, I've tried quite a few others. Such as the Glenfarclas 18, Glenfiddich 18, Glenlivet 15, Glenlivet Triple Cask, Macallan select oak, Macallan 12 fine oak, Aberfeldy 18, Glenmorangie 10, Balvenie 16, Balvenie 17, Highland Park.... Recently bought a bottle of Blue lable to try out. But at the end of the day, I always find myself going back to the Glenlivet 18. It is just that wonderful. It is so balanced. It is sweet but not too sweet. The oakiness isn't over powering. Love the long lasting taste. This is without doubt my favourite whisky.
I have ventured into the world of older whiskies lately. This was my first 18 year old purchase. The nose for me is sweet, fruity, apples and oranges along with honey and a hint of apricots. As an aside, my wife does not like strong liquor especially the smell, but when I got her to take a sniff she actually really liked it! Tasting did not go so well :-) Back to me.....on the palate it is sweet but not overly so...I get slight orange peel, caramel, honey and some nuttiness. There is a nice burst of flavours initially which stays throughout but never overpowering. The finish is gradual...smooth and buttery with no burn (not a fan of the burn which makes it even better). I know some feel this might lack character or is "bland" but I really enjoyed this one and think the bottle will disappear quickly. Sometimes I'm in the mood for some bite and/or strong aromas and other times feel like a relaxing easy to drink whisky that doesn't shock the senses. This one fits the bill perfectly for me.
One of the best!
