The Glenlivet is one of the most famous names in the Scotch whisky industry, renowned for its high-quality single malt whiskies. The distillery was founded by George Smith in the early 19th century in the Speyside region of Scotland. Smith was among the first to obtain a legal distilling license in 1824, following the Excise Act of 1823, which made it easier for distillers in Scotland to operate legally and profitably.
The Glenlivet 21 Year Old is matured in traditional casks and finished in a combination of first-fill Oloroso Sherry, Tronçais oak Cognac, and Vintage Colheita Port casks. This triple cask finish imparts extra layers of depth, smoothness, and intriguing spiciness to The Glenlivet’s iconic smooth and fruity style.

Long and rich with warming spice, leaving a lasting impression of elegance and complexity.
