Although The Glenlivet is widely believed to be the oldest operational distillery in Scotland, it isn’t. That honour goes to Strathisla,while Glen Garioch could be even older. The Glenlivet was however one of the first to take out one of the new licences issued after the passing of the 1823 Excise Act which is accepted as being the starting point of the modern Scotch whisky industry. However, I now believe that has now changed forever, and maybe I may have changed forever. Enter The Glenlivet Nadurra First Fill Selection, a Speyside single malt Scotch. This is the younger brother of The Glenlivet Nadurra Oloroso 16 Year Old. There is no age listed for the First Fill Selection and we’re left guessing, but it really doesn’t matter. This is one very enjoyable whisky experience. I have never considered myself much of a Scotch drinker, and actually once considered that I might simply be too unsophisticated to genuinely appreciate both the history and the experience of Scottish whisky. Cost was also a barrier for me when so many excellent bourbons are generally available at 2/3rds the price.

Glenlivet’ had been used as a shorthand for what we now know as Speyside whiskies since the smuggling era. By the 1860s, the title was being appended to distilleries’ names as far north as Elgin, much to the irritation of the Smith family who had by then trademarked Glenlivet.You are responsible for all activities through your account.

Queen Elizabeth, The Queen Mother's 80th Birthday, 4th August 1980 Being completely forthright, I fell in love with this scotch from the very first taste. I like consistency with my whisky and get put off when my experience is radically different depending on the environment, such as with what I’ve eaten or the cigar I’ve chosen. I’ve had several tastings and it is still just as good as the first one, and every time too.

Glenlivet Nàdurra FF0122 Details

The Glenlivet was always available as single malt, but it wasn’t until after the Second World War that it began its rise. By then the firm was being run by Bill Smith Grant who saw the American market as offering new opportunities for the whisky, making it arguably the first single malt brand of the modern era. That said, even in the 1970s, 95% of its production was for fillings. Regardless of whether the Service offers the functionality to contribute, you are solely responsible and liable for any content and information that you create, upload, post, publish, link to, duplicate, transmit, record, display or otherwise make available on the Service or to other Members, such as chat messages, text messages, videos, audio, audio recordings, music, pictures, photographs, text and any other information or materials, whether publicly posted or privately transmitted (“Contributions”). Whiskybase B.V. is the Dutch private limited liability company, having its statutory seat in Rotterdam, The Netherlands and its office at Zwaanshals 530, 3035 KS Rotterdam, The Netherlands. Whiskybase B.V. is registered with the Dutch Chamber of Commerce under no. 52072819. Up front there’s a noticeable sweet and fruity base composed primarily of peach and pear with a dense and deep honey. It’s fruit concentrate: rich, full, and developed, but still restrained. There’s also a light mint and lightly charred wood smell, similar to a rye whiskey. I rarely (really never) smell mint and wood in Scotch, but I bet that aging in first-fill American oak, similar to those used in bourbon, for a long 16 years infuses more bourbon-like scents. No partnership, joint venture, agency, or employment relationship is created as a result of your use of the Service.
