Reviewed December 24, 2022The nose is warm and bright with a hint of baking spices. The palette starts off sweet and light and gains a hint of spiciness as it moves through the mouth. The finish is exceptionally smooth and slightly olly with a hint of oak. -

Reviewed October 29, 2022 (edited December 27, 2022)N: Strawberry, peach, pear, caramel, floral notes, maybe some cut grass, mint and other dried herbs. Lots going on and working in a couple different directions. Nice. P: Caramel, vanilla, strawberry, stone fruit, buttercream, baking spice, fresh bread, some pine, some dried herbs. Smooth, creamy, rich mouthfeel. F: Baking spice, dash of cinnamon, fruit and the consistent dried herbs from the nose and palate. A savory toasted bread with some earthy notes. Little bit of heat, but not much. A lovely dram, no doubt, but about par for the age and price. Nothing stands out, good or bad. Wouldn't have a problem grabbing another, but not in any hurry to do so either. _______ Please come join an unofficial Distiller community on Discord: https://discord.gg/VSmCvzAQfH.

Reviewed September 30, 2022 (edited December 17, 2022)A- amber +1, high viscosity N- typical glenlivet nose, seltzer, sweet (honey, vanilla, caramel) fruity (red apples, pears, sultanas, tangerines), cereal, wet oak P- light spicy arrival, half rich, half full, oily, sweet ( honey, vanilla, caramel), fruity ( tangerines, red apples, sultanas), barley malt, the oak is more prominent in the palate than in the nose F- short to medium, sweet-cereal-oaky aftertaste C- good entry level dram ( not my cup of tea) but it’s a safe profile especially if you are starting your whisky journey
