The story behind it

The maker

Founded in 1824 by George Smith, The Glenlivet was the first licensed distillery in the parish of Glenlivet. Despite fierce opposition and threats from local illicit distillers, Smith pioneered a refined, fruit-forward style of malt whisky that soon defined the entire Speyside region.

How it is made

The Glenlivet Distillery is situated near Ballindalloch in Moray, Scotland, utilizing the mineral-rich waters of Josie's Well to craft its famously smooth spirit. This limited expression elevates their classic twelve-year-old single malt by finishing a portion of the whisky in casks previously used to age flavorful Jamaican rum.
