On the nose, Glenlivet 18 year old whisky has strong, complex aromas of chewy sultanas, Sherry-soaked peels, barley sugars, toasty grains, and faint wisps of smokiness.There is a lovely flavor starting to develop in this that I really liked in my bottle of Tomatin 25 year; sort of a spicy dried fruit.

It struck me as odd, since that bottle was one of the distinguishing characteristics of the 12 year old.Each and every Member must be of legal drinking age in its country of residence to be allowed to use the Service. V. is the Dutch private limited liability company, having its statutory seat in Rotterdam, The Netherlands and its office at Zwaanshals 530, 3035 KS Rotterdam, The Netherlands. It is not peated—a characteristic common to Speyside—so the whiskies lack the smoky taste often associated with scotch (there are exceptions, such as Nàdurra Peated Cask Finish). Finish: A delectable fusion of succulent berries and indulgent dark chocolate that linger on the palate.

Nose: Sweet sultanas, Sherried peels, barley sugars, toasty cereals, floral petals and a hint of apple blossom. The first- and second-fill American oak casks add hints of tropical fruits, while former sherry casks contribute a spiciness that gives the whisky an intriguing complexity. Without prejudice to the section Liability below, the Service may be temporarily unavailable during maintenance, updates, etc.

I previously tasted the Glenlivet 12 Year Old and the no longer made 12 Year Old French Oak Finish (replaced by the 15 Year Old French Oak) and now this 18 Year Old, of which I had received a sample from my friend Niek.

An assembly of malts are employed and aged in first-fill bourbon casks to create this remarkable beverage. It's thebrand that ignited the reveredSpeyside scotches, whichareknown for theirelegance and rich taste. Its origin story is one of the more interesting ones in the business, and even has a bit of truth to it.

Palate: An indulgent bouquet of aromas, encompassing chewy tannins and oak; Manuka honey, walnut, Cox’s apples and orange peels; all rounded off with the refreshing scents of fennel and spearmint. Glenmorangie has recently released a new range of bottles which have a more contemporary look and feel to them, with bold colours and sleek labels.
