Meet The Glenlivet 14 Year Old, our newest whisky. Featuring raisin-rich cognac and signature citrus notes married with creamy smoothness, the luscious liquid has traveled from bourbon and sherry casks to a selective finish in cognac casks. Bursting with sweet and fruity aromas and inspired by Captain Bill Smith Grant, great-grandson of our Founder George Smith, The Glenlivet 14 Year Old shines as a proud celebration of our Speyside craft. Wander from the misty glens of Scottish Speyside to the rolling vineyards of France’s Cognac region at every sip.
Wine Enthusiast 93 points - TOP 100 SPIRITS OF 2019 - Bright copper in the glass, the sweet aromas suggest maple and allspice. The light, drying palate echoes that maple hint alongside grapefruit peel tones, finishing with a flurry of baking spice and mouthwatering lemon peel. A drop of water coaxes a gentle waft of smoke. Overall a delicate, ethereal sipper..December/2019
Ultimate Beverage Challenge 94 points - Ethereal candied apple opens the aroma profile of this remarkably rich liquid. Dense with field blossoms and clean straw, dried apricots and an an increasingly dry mid-palate into finish that calls to mind walnut skins and darker stone fruits. A succulent balance between sun kissed grains and beautiful wood tones. - 2019 Ultimate Spirits Challenge (Excellent, Highly Recommended) (Great Value).April/2019
