GLENLIVET FOUNDERS & GLA/PACK 40% 700ML

Description

Boasting the classic flavors of The Glenlivet bound up in a creamy, smooth texture, The Glenlivet Founder’s Reserve single malt whisky pays tribute to the man who started it all. When George Smith began distilling, The Glenlivet had no age statements, selecting whisky from casks of various ages. Crafted with water from the same crystal-clear mountain streams and in the same cold, pure air, The Glenlivet Founder’s Reserve is as smooth and fruity as the whisky that first flowed from the original copper pot stills. These unique, lantern-shaped copper stills, designed by George Smith himself, are not the only crucial elements in our distilling legacy. The traditional oak casks in which we mature the whisky impart each expression with distinct characteristics. To lend a modern twist to the flavor, Master Distiller Alan Winchester combines aged oak casks with American first-fill oak casks. These first-fill casks, which have never been used to mature whisky before, provide a smooth, creamy sweetness that mingles harmoniously with the delicate flavors and complex fruity tones already present in the whisky. Flavor: Creamy sweetness and zesty fruits Nose: Citrus fruit, sweet orange Palate: Zesty orange, pear, toffee apples Finish: Long, creamy, smooth Alcohol Content: 40%
