Glenlivet 21 Year Archive

Sherry on the nose, caramel, lovely well balanced nose. Medium body, some spice but quite basic with short finish

Nose: Sherry, honey Palate: Incredibly sweet. Notes of honey, some oak. Finish: Very smooth, the honey lingers. Notes of vanilla come up last before it lingers off. Very mild smoke, but not major. Overall, this is a very smooth whiskey. It is the pinnacle of a non peated, sherry finished scotch.

Nose: full, powerful, lots of sherry, raisins, caramel. Palate: sherry and caramel, raisins macerated in alcohol, cocoa shortcrust pastry. Light coffee that pops up as you approach the finish. A hint of spiciness on the tongue. It fills the mouth and tongue, not a sour note. Warm and enveloping finish, long, which fades from slightly bitter to sweet. An almost perfect whisky, with the right alcohol content, worthy of Glenlivet's XXV, with which it plays great. Rating 5.00 ___________________________________________________________________ Naso: pieno, potente, tanto sherry, uvetta, caramello. Palato: sherry e caramello, uvette macerate nell’alcool, pasta frolla al cacao. Leggero caffè che compare mentre ci si avvicina al finale. Una punta di piccante sulla lingua. Riempie la bocca e la lingua, non una nota stonata. Finale caldo e avvolgente, lungo, che sfuma dal leggermente amaro al dolce. Un whisky pressoché perfetto, con la giusta gradazione, degno del XXV sempre di Glenlivet, con il quale se la gioca alla grande. Voto 5,00
