On the nose: Tropical fruits in the first half. Earthy in the second half. Initially, this is similar to the 12-year-old. There are medium intense aromas of pineapple, dried apricot, sapodilla, and starfruit. After these come light aromas of Fuji apples, honey and coconut sugar syrup. The intensity turns up a bit. It allows me to smell honeydew, orange jam and orange peel. Subtle aromas of French oak characteristics come out. An assortment of mushrooms like dried shiitake and grounded chaga comes to mind.

Nice and fruity with oranges, grapes and candied lemons. More malt and some sherry with floral qualities in the mix too. Brazil nuts and plums round it off. Very pleasant and easy to drink.It is kind of how you imagine a mid-range scotch to taste but that means it is not quite interesting enough for my palate. The charming story of Glenlivet begins in Livet Valley, where the founder of the brand, George Smith, learned about whiskey making. Secreted in this hard-to-find valley, Smith learned how to distill the whiskey that was to become World famous. The tale continues with King George IV arriving in Scotland in August 1822 when he is reputed to have asked to try an illegal (as it was then) dram of Glenlivet single malt whiskey. As is often the case with 40% ABV whiskies it is very short. Wine gums come to mind with some honey, malt, a touch of vanilla and pepper. Summary

On the nose: Very different from the 12 and 15. The aromas of red fruits are more dominant: I get light, lasting and stable aromas of cherries, dates, and sultanas, as well as Thompson & muscatel grapes, coffee, chocolate, honey and blood orange. There are subtle bursts of pineapple, orange peel and starfruit in between these–then there’s a sudden fall-off. Malty brûléed pastry, buttered bread and citrus peel combine in interesting ways with nutty and fruity notes. A sherry like sweetness, spiced orange candy and a light sweet cream come through as hints. The experience wasn’t as technical as I had hoped it to be, but that was to be expected. The spiels I heard were nothing new. The tasting touched on the founder, George Smith, and on how there were way more illegal distillers before 1823, after which a law made it cheaper to apply for a distilling license. It went on to say that 1824 was the year he got licensed and could operate his distillery. There was mention of the then-King of England asking for his whisky before it even became legal, and of how they fought other Speyside whisky who sought to use the name “THE” Glenlivet in their bottlings. Damak :Bol baharatlı karakter hemen kendini gösteriyor. Tarçın ve zencefil aromalarına kuru üzüm, vanilya, çikolata ve fındık eşlik ediyor. Buruna göre alkol damakta daha belirgin. Yoğun ve güçlü. The Glenlivet 15 French Oak Reserve is aged for under a year in both new and charred Limousin French oak. The casks are then re-charred after each use. This is wasn’t mentioned in the tasting, but previous tastings have mentioned charring is said to reset a cask. I guess they want to keep the French oak influence as pure as they can. There is also some European oak/ex-sherry cask in this blend.

Whisky reviews for Glenlivet 15-year-old

Nothing in the Terms shall exclude or limit our liability for fraudulent misrepresentation or for death or personal injury resulting from gross negligence or willful misconduct by us. Unless mandatory applicable law provides otherwise, your use of and membership to the Service are exclusively governed by Dutch law. We shall first try to settle any dispute over a dram of whisky. Disputes that cannot be settled over multiple drams of whisky shall be solely submitted to the court of Amsterdam, The Netherlands unless mandatory applicable law provides otherwise. I think this is a huge improvement over the 12-year-old. The blending of flavors is more cohesive, and there seems to be a better balance between oak influence and the distillery DNA. I feel like I’d enjoy this more if it weren’t so watery. Glenlivet 15’in olgunlaştırmasında kullanılan bu fıçıların, Fransa’nın Dordogne bölgesine ait olduğunu ve özellikle konyak yıllandırmada kullanıldığını da belirtelim. The Glenlivet 15 French Oak Reserve (İskoç Single Malt, 40% abv) The Glenlivet distillery takes its water from Josie’s Well As Well as other nearby springs. The malt is supplied by Crisp Maltings of Portgordon. Part of the Glenlivet distillery process is chill filtering, which, in taste tests, has been adjudged to impart a fuller, rounder, and richer flavour. Whisky Details
