✨ Technical Specifications
The Glenlivet Nàdurra Peated Cask Finish represents a captivating dialogue between Speyside elegance and Islay-inspired smoke. 'Nàdurra', translating to 'natural' in Scottish Gaelic, denotes a range crafted using traditional 19th-century techniques, bottled at cask strength and without chill-filtration to preserve its full texture and complexity. For Batch OL0715, the signature bright, orchard-fruit spirit of The Glenlivet was finished in casks that previously held heavily peated Scotch whisky. This process coaxes out a delicate, aromatic smoke that beautifully wraps around the distillery's classic notes of ripe pear, soft vanilla, and citrus. It serves as a historical nod to the early days of Speyside distilling, when peat was more commonly utilized in the malting process due to the region's remote geography.
🍾 About the Producer
Founded in 1824 by George Smith in the remote Livet Valley of Speyside, Scotland, The Glenlivet holds historic distinction as the first legally licensed distillery in the parish following the 1823 Excise Act. Today part of Chivas Brothers under Pernod Ricard, the distillery draws mineral-rich water from Josie's Well and employs tall, lantern-shaped copper pot stills to achieve a remarkably light and refined distillation. The Glenlivet is celebrated for setting the benchmark of classic Speyside single malt whisky, defined by a smooth, fruit-forward profile laden with orchard apples, delicate floral tones, and subtle oak, as showcased in acclaimed expressions ranging from its iconic 12 Year Old to rare editions in the Winchester and Cellar Collections.
