The Glenlivet 15 Years Old 70cl

George Smith, the founder of The Glenlivet distillery, in 1824, was the first to produce a whisky of such exceptional quality that it was soon widely acknowledged to be how a malt whiskey should taste and rightfully earned the name The Glenlivet.

The 15 Year Old gets its distinctive rich and exotic character from a process of selective maturation in which a proportion of the spirit is matured in French oak casks. In fact, we at The Glenlivet were one of the first to use French oak for making whisky, a technique that has since been imitated the world over.
