✨ Tekniske specifikationer
This historic bottling of The Glenlivet 12 Year Old 'Unblended All Malt' is a legendary artifact from the golden era of Speyside whisky. Imported to Italy by the renowned Baretto import house during the late 20th century, this release predates the modern standardization of the term 'Single Malt.' Italy was one of the earliest and most enthusiastic export markets for single malt Scotch, and importers like Baretto helped establish its global reputation. Distilled in Glenlivet's iconic lantern-shaped copper pot stills and drawn from mineral-rich water from Josie's Well, this expression showcases the traditional Speyside style of the era: wonderfully aromatic, complex, and defined by notes of orchard fruits, soft honey, and gentle oak spice.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
The Glenlivet blev grundlagt i 1824 af George Smith i den afsidesliggende Livet Valley i skotske Speyside, og destilleriet har en historisk særstatus som det allerførste i sognet, der opnåede officiel licens efter Excise Act i 1823. I dag hører destilleriet under Chivas Brothers og Pernod Ricard. Det mineralrige vand hentes fra Josie's Well, og destillationen foregår på høje, lanterneformede kobberkedler, hvilket skaber en bemærkelsesværdig let og elegant spiritus. The Glenlivet er berømt for at have sat standarden for klassisk Speyside single malt whisky med sin bløde, frugtige profil præget af modne æbler fra frugtplantagen, fine florale nuancer og et diskret strejf af eg – en stil, der udfolder sig smukt i alt fra den ikoniske 12 Year Old til sjældne aftapninger i Winchester- og Cellar Collection-serierne.
