✨ Tekniske specifikationer

The Glenlivet Ndurra Peated Cask Finish represents a fascinating departure from the distillery's signature smooth and fruity Speyside style, drawing inspiration from the historic, rugged traditions of whisky making. 'Ndurra'—meaning 'natural' in Scottish Gaelic—is crafted using 19th-century methods, bottled at cask strength, and proudly non-chill filtered to preserve its rich texture and complex mouthfeel. For the Peated Cask Finish, the spirit is matured in traditional oak casks before undergoing a finishing period in casks that previously held heavily peated Scotch whisky. This process imparts a delicate, aromatic veil of campfire smoke and earthy peat over The Glenlivet's classic bright orchard fruit, sweet vanilla, and floral notes. It is a liquid bridge between the gentle elegance of Speyside and the untamed, smoky character of Scotland's historic peat-fired kilns.

🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten

The Glenlivet blev grundlagt i 1824 af George Smith i den afsidesliggende Livet Valley og var det første lovlige destilleri i sognet efter vedtagelsen af The Excise Act i 1823. Destilleriet ligger højt i Speyside og henter sit rene, mineralrige vand fra Josie's Well, hvilket danner grundlag for en langsom og kontrolleret gæringsproces. The Glenlivet er berømt for sine karakteristiske lanterneformede kobberkedler med lange, slanke halse, der sikrer en intens kobberkontakt og et højt tilbageløb. Denne særlige konstruktion resulterer i et bemærkelsesværdigt elegant, esterdrevet og floralt destillat, kendetegnet ved fine signaturnoter af grønne æbler, modne pærer og blomstrende frugttræer. Fadlagringen spænder vidt fra klassiske bourbonfade af amerikansk hvideg og europæiske sherryfade til fransk Limousin-eg samt innovative aftapninger som Caribbean Reserve. Destilleriet ejes i dag af Pernod Ricard under Chivas Brothers og står fortsat som et globalt referencepunkt for den klassiske single malt-tradition i Speyside.
