The Glenlivet 15 Year Old
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. The Limousin oak we use is cut in France's Dordogne region, where it's often used to mature cognacs. Its low density allows whisky to sink deep into the wood, and we carefully control how long the whisky matures in the casks so as not to overpower the desired result: a unique, pleasing spiciness.

Nose: Soft floral and herbal aromas lead into sweet layers of honey, caramel, and light citrus, with just a faint, surprising whisper of peat smoke
Palate: A smooth and light-bodied mouthfeel carries gentle flavors of crisp apple, pear, and creamy vanilla, balanced by mild oak and baking spices like cinnamon
Finish: The experience concludes with a soft, medium-length fade of lingering sweet candy, honey, and a touch of dry woody spice.
