The Glenlivet 12 Year Double Oak is the flagship single malt from the Speyside distillery founded by George Smith in 1824. Matured for at least 12 years in a combination of European oak and American oak casks, the whisky reflects the brand’s signature “Double Oak” maturation. The label was updated in 2019 to include the Double Oak designation, though the whisky itself remains unchanged.

Tasting Notes

"There are times that you want an über complex, confounding, whisky to consume. And sometimes you just want a drink. The Glenlivet has pleasant aromas of toasted cereal, pears, and honey. The finish has more honey and vanilla but the whisky doesn't stay with you for the long haul. And that's okay. "
