Reviewed January 28, 2023 (edited February 4, 2023)Listen to this marvelous story. I once was staying at Linn's house, Chivas Regal Castle in Scotland. The host let me drink any whisky i wanted from the first 3 shelves of a 7 shelved wall full of incredible bottles. I picked a strange looking Glenlivet 13yo which liquid was almost black due to the sherriness. It changed my life. This was a 13yo Taiwan exclusive sherry cask matured Glenlivet. Since that moment, i have managed to score more than 10 bottles in the past few years, i got only one left. Then, i found out about a 15yo bottling, of the same sherry cask matured series for Taiwan. I also scored a few bottles. Both expressions were a perfect 100 score drams for me. Well, guess what i have found now? THE 14YO GLENLIVET SHERRY CASK MATURED FOR TAIWAN. Bottled at 40%abv, the most reddish color ever, dracula would have drank this thinking it was blood. On the nose, the most incredible aroma ever of red fruits, red berries and milk powder formula. Dark chocolate, cotton candy and floral profiles. After the first sip, the aroma changed into this out-of-this-world maple syrup note. Coffee and cocoa. On the palate, cherries bathed in chocolate. Wonderfully creamy and very winey. Sweet Prunes. Argentinian dulce de leche; Super fruity and sweet. Aftertaste is all about red fruits, maraschino cherries. Ginger and a sherry bomb. Marvelous stuff. Overall, this might be, the greatest Glenlivet known to man. Also, the 13yo and the 15yo Taiwan Exclusives are the best Glenlivets known to man, lol. This is the most impressive sherry bomb ever crafted, it should be considered the standard objective of all other sherried single malts. I believe you can guess that i rated this spectacular whisky a perfect 100 score. Sláinte!!
