Customer Rating

“Honey, spice, sherry, and a long pleasant oaky finish. A dram is my reward at the end of a busy week. I usually suggest Glenlivet 18 to friends who haven’t yet fallen in love with Scotch. It’s a very likable single malt, complex and aromatic. ”

Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt

Nose

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.

Palate

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.

Finish

Long and dry with a spicy oak note.

Super smooth

Not normally a whisky drinker. Bought a bottle for a friend. Three of us tried a tiny sip. We all thought it very special. So I bought a bottle for my family over Christmas. Super smooth and definitely a hint of Christmas in there. Delicious

Not a patch on the earlier version!

The new 40% version is not a patch on the earlier 43% version. Totally lost the essence of an iconic Scotch and made me look at other options!

Solid Speysider

Considering that it is bottled at 40% abv, this is a very intense, well-balanced whisky. I don't understand the very negative reviews here. The nose is all Christmas cake, cinnamon, orange zest and toffee. The taste is intensely malty, rich butterscotch, citrus fruit, chocolate pudding and custard. There is no burn, only a light pepperiness in the long finish. IMHO this is a really good whisky and these days represents good value at the price.

Very good

Some reviewers here who give this whisky less than 3 out of 5 stars are quite unfairly to this product. Of course it would be much better if it was unchillfiltered, uncoloured and 46% ABV. For a 18 years old whisky it smells and tastes exactly how it should be - clean, smooth and mature. It is nothing earth-shattering or mind-blowing, but noways it deserves 2 stars. Come on guys, this is not a 7,99 Euro blended whisky from the supermarket. I will definitely buy it again

Poor

Really poor at 40%, tastes thin - a shame as it could be much better if properly presented
