Product Details
The Glenlivet 15 Years Old utilizes a unique 'French Oak Reserve' process, selecting Limousin oak from the Dordogne region of France. Typically used for aging premium Cognac, this fine-grained wood imparts rich layers and warm spice to the whisky, blending perfectly with Glenlivet's classic floral and fruity character to create a deeply elegant drinking experience.

Read more about the brand
Founded in 1824, The Glenlivet was the first licensed distillery in the Speyside region of Scotland. Founder George Smith was known for his uncompromising commitment to quality. His whisky was so exceptional that other local distilleries began copying the 'Glenlivet' name. To protect its authenticity, the distillery successfully applied for a patent, becoming the only brand legally allowed to be called 'The Glenlivet'.
The core style of The Glenlivet involves high-necked, lantern-shaped copper stills, which facilitate more interaction between the spirit and the copper, extracting the lightest floral and fruity notes. The 15 Years Old expression is a testament to this innovation, with the Master Distiller boldly introducing French Limousin oak to add nutty and toasted spice notes, making it an elegant classic of Speyside whisky.
