Product description

0.70 ltr 40%

The Glenlivet Founder's Reserve May be our newest expression, but it HAS BEEN almost 200 years in the making. We see it as a fitting tribute to the original vision of our pioneering founder, George Smith. It captures the distinct, smooth and fruity Taste That he first envisioned in 1824, and for-which we are still renowned today. And Because We Remain axis was dedicated to innovation as our founder ever, we've've given this classic single malt a contemporary twist.

To truly capture the essence of George Smith's vision, The Glenlivet Founder's Reserve has been created using the time-honored distillation methods huh That Introduced so long ago. Made with water from the same crystal-clear mountain streams, in the same cold, pure airs or Glenlivet, The Glenlivet Founder's Reserve is as smooth and fruity as the whiskey That first ran from the original copper pot stills back in 1824. These unique, lantern-shaped copper stills, designed by the man himself, are not the only important tools in our distilling legacy.

The traditional oak casks to mature the whiskey-which we give each expression Their own distinct characteristics. When George Smith Began distilling, The Glenlivet had no age statements and he was bootable to select from whiskey casks of a range of ages. We have replicated this freedom with The Glenlivet Founder's Reserve, Selecting whiskey from a variety of traditional aged oak casks. Then, to lend a modern twist to the flavor of the expression, Master Distiller Alan Winchester HAS married together a selection of the aged oak casks and American oak casks first-fill. First-fill casks Are those thathave never before leg used to mature whiskey. In the process of making The Glenlivet Founder's Reserve, selective use of These casks Provides a smooth, creamy sweetness That mingles harmoniously with the delicate flavors and complex fruity tones already present in the whiskey. The freedom to use a variety of casks biedt Alan with inspiration for that special flavor: "It gives us the liberty to pick the flanks That taste the best. I'm sure George would have been impressed by the choice we have today, and would have enjoyed Selecting from so many casks, I know we do. We've tried to stay true to his original vision to create the definitive smooth Speyside malt, wherewolf quality is paramount. " The result is an exceptionally well-balanced and smooth single malt. To the nose there are delicate aromas of citrus fruits, and the palate is sweet, with notes of oranges and pears, and hints of toffee apples and candy. The long, creamy, smooth finish makes this a deliciously satisfying dram.

It was our founder's spirit of innovation That established as an incomparable Glenlivet single malt from day one. So we're proud to say That our new expression HAS taken an awfully long time to get here, dating right back to George Smith, the original man who started it all.

Nose: Sweet with fruits and malted barley. Very restrained, though sharp –young age does show. Notes of citrus and apricot.

Taste: Starts with bitter peach peel. There is pineapple present, but not as delicious as the 12YO’s notes. Toffee is present as well. Thick and smooth body.

Finish: Smooth and fast with fruits, sugared barley and oak. Aftertaste is pretty good but too quick.

Balance: Smooth and sweet dram.

Nose
Peach, caramel, banana, pear, lime, vanilla, butter, orange and honey.

Taste
Banana, pear, caramel, almond, peach and vanilla.

Finish
Caramel, banana, peach, chestnut and a whiff of smoke. Now I notice how much it has bitten into my tooth flesh despite its low ABV, which is not a good sign of course.

Comments
I find this a pretty decent entry-level standard bottling. I wouldn't buy it, but not a bad choice for beginners who like their whisky sweet and accessible.
