Glenlivet 14 Year Cognac Cask Selection

Very smooth with a lot of sweetness.

Strong scotch with hints of peat

Honey, pear and spice that your used to with Glenlivet with a nice finish of dark fruit and raisin from the cognac barrels. Excellent buy

Color dark gold (artificial coloring?), viscous, and clear (chill-filtered?). Nose is somewhat weak, sour, malty, with cereal, black pepper, and toffee notes. Palate is quite different, dominated by sweet character, with raisins, toffee, vanilla, pear, citrus, and oak notes. Finish is quite long, pleasant, with chocolate and more fruit character. A few drops of water don’t do much for this 40% ABV whisky. Character is weakened, but suddenly a hint of nuts appears on the finish. Overall, this is a nice and quite complex dram that is very much enjoyable. For $46 at Costco this is a definite keeper.

Very smooth with a nice finish of Carmel and vanilla. Perfect for sipping

Standard Glenlivet taste profile. A bit sweeter than my preference, but very drinkable.
