The story behind it

The maker

Founded by George Smith in 1824, The Glenlivet was the first licensed distillery in the parish of Glenlivet. His courageous pursuit of quality established a style of single malt that defined the Speyside region and remains a benchmark of scotch whisky today.

How it is made

The Glenlivet is crafted in the remote Livet Valley of Speyside, using mineral-rich water from Josie's Well to ensure pure fermentation. The iconic lantern-shaped copper pot stills at the distillery dictate the light, elegant style of the resulting spirit.
