The Glenlivet 1966 is a remarkable whisky with a rich history. Distilled in 1966 and bottled in 2014 by independent bottlers Gordon & MacPhail, this whisky is a true achievement for the ages. As the oldest licensed distillery in Scotland, Glenlivet has long been known for its quality, with many other single malts using the Glenlivet suffix in an attempt to benefit from its reputation. This particular expression of Glenlivet was matured in oak casks for 47 years and is free from coloring and chill filtration. It is bottled at 40% ABV and comes in its original box. With fragrant vanilla aromas on the nose, and flavors of white pepper, charred oak, grapefruit, lime, and subtle notes of vanilla on the palate, this whisky is truly a gorgeous dram.
Gordon & MacPhail, who have a long-standing relationship with the distillery, were granted a license to officially bottle Glenlivet single malt in the 1970s and 1980s. This relationship has since furnished them with a steady supply of high-quality casks, resulting in high-quality releases such as this one. This vintage release encapsulates over four decades of maturation, resulting in a whisky of unparalleled depth and complexity. With its rich history, exceptional quality, and unique flavor profile, the Glenlivet 1966 is a must-try for any serious whisky collector or enthusiast.
