The legend of The Glenlivet began in 1824. In an era of illicit distilling, founder George Smith courageously obtained the first legal distillery license in the Livet Valley. While this move drew resentment from local smugglers, it pioneered a new era for Speyside whisky. Located in a prime geographic position, the distillery uses mineral-rich water from Josie's Well and unique lantern-shaped stills to filter out heavy oils, preserving the delicate floral and fruity aromas.
In the 19th century, the quality of Glenlivet was so renowned that many distilleries added 'Glenlivet' to their own names. Eventually, the distillery won exclusive rights through legal action to be the only one allowed to be called 'The Glenlivet', symbolizing its irreplaceable status. Today, it remains committed to George Smith's vision, continuing to innovate while retaining the elegant floral style loved worldwide. Whether enjoyed neat or paired with fine dining, The Glenlivet 12 Years Old is your perfect partner for experiencing the essence of Scotch whisky.
