The Glenlivet
Scotland
Single Malt
A tropical expression from The Glenlivet, for Caribbean Reserve a portion of the whisky was finished in casks which previously held Caribbean rum. The distillery folks suggest adding a splash of coconut water, though we reckon a malty twist on a Mai Tai is on the cards!
Honeyed orchard fruit, tinned pear and fried banana.
Ripe tropical fruit and brown sugar, along with cinnamon pastries.
Pineapple upside down cake.
A nice dram but I think the rum finish would be better suited to a more aged malt. Was expecting more intense flavour and softer mouth feel.
Tasted this expecting it to effectively be rum over a whiskey. My verdict is that it is definitely still a whisky; the rum influence isn't actually that strong and I found the product to be similar to other Glenlivets. Nose: sweet toffee, apple, bear and banana on the nose. Palatte: sticky toffee pudding with some rasin Finish: medium with some pineapple and spice
The finish is more rum than whisky, the initial taste is smooth speyside with hardly any malt tasted. Fruity and smooth throughout .
