The Glenlivet 40-Year-Old is a masterpiece of time, craftsmanship, and innovation. This rare expression embodies the legacy of The Glenlivet`s signature fruity character, elevated through an exceptional finishing process. After four decades of careful maturation, the whisky is enriched by a bespoke cask finish, crafted in collaboration with renowned sherry producers from Spain’s Jerez region. These custom casks, seasoned with a blend of Oloroso and Pedro Ximénez sherries, imbue the whisky with a rich depth of flavour.

On the nose, it entices with the sweet aroma of homemade strawberry jam, raisins, and luscious dark cherries, complemented by warming notes of cinnamon, nutmeg, and sweet toasted oak. On the palate, a symphony of rich, indulgent flavours unfolds. Poached plums and charred orange give way to deeper notes of dark chocolate, braised red apples, and sweet liquorice. This luxurious tasting experience culminates in a long, sweet, and warming finish, laced with gentle spice.

Glenlivet

A Classic Speyside

Glenlivet was the first Speyside in distillery to be granted a license after the passing of the excise act in 1823. Founded by George Smith, the distillery has become synonymous with a softer, gentler style of single malt and one of Scotland's best selling whiskies. Beyond the reliable core range that features a 12 year old, 15 year old, 18 year old and a number of non-age-statement cask finishes, Glenlivet is famous for the venerable old drams released under the "Cellar Collection" series.

The distillery was purchased by Pernod Ricard in 2001 and currently produces over 10 millions litres of new-make spirit a year. The team operate six stills and eight washbacks, installed as part of a renovation project that was completed in 2010.
