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.
Great whisky for the money! Fresh nose, cereals and citrus. Honey and dark chocolate, with orange peel. Taste stays with you for quite a while. So smooth!
This one is better than Glenfiddich18! Definitely will buy again!
Very good, unique taste. I like the bit of smoke and the light fruitiness. This is my go to favorite. I have a bottle of the 21 archive I am opening Christmas eve, I cant wait.
I've been drinking Single Malts for many years. MCCALLUM 10 yr has been my favourite, however, I recently tried Argbah, 18 year and loved the smokey,peat flavour. The Glenlivet 18 yr was a gift from my son, who has expensive and quality taste in all things. This is a very enjoyably scotch , fruity, smooth and leaves a fresh, clean taste. Definitely worth a try. Will buy another. Newfoundland, Canada. October, 2014
When I was in college back in 2001-2005, I started exploring the Scotch world, and was quickly pointed in the direction of this bottle. From the first sip until today, I've always loved this one. From the nose to the rich finish, it's simply delicious, and it's hard to find much fault here. I used to be able to get it for around $69, and at that price, it's highway robbery! But these days, it's at least $100 down here in South Florida. Still worth every penny!
