The Glenlivet Caribbean Reserve is a distinguished single malt whisky, offering a unique tropical twist by being finished in casks that previously held Caribbean rum. Bottled at 40% ABV and presented in a 700ml bottle, this expression embodies the harmony of Scotch heritage and Caribbean vibrance.
On the nose, this whisky unfolds a captivating bouquet of pear, red apple, overripe bananas, sticky honey, and subtle hints of caramel and toffee. The palate follows through with a rich and complex profile, featuring flavors of caramel, toffee, pineapple, mango, orchard fruits, and a delicate touch of cinnamon. The finish is citrusy, well-balanced, and exceptionally smooth.
Perfect for enjoying neat, on the rocks, or topped with coconut water for a refreshing summer sipper, it also serves as a versatile base for cocktails such as the Mai Tai. The Glenlivet distillery, nestled in Speyside, Scotland, stands as one of the largest single malt whisky distilleries, producing 21 million liters of whisky annually. With 28 stills, the distillery parallels its rival Glenfiddich in production capacity and is steadily climbing the ranks in sales, poised to potentially become the top-selling single malt whisky worldwide.
The Glenlivet Caribbean Reserve, available with or without a presentation box, is a must-try for aficionados of rum-finished whiskies and those seeking a unique and flavorful dram. Bottled in the 2020s and 2021, this whisky represents a delightful fusion of traditional Scotch craftsmanship and vibrant Caribbean influence.

While The Glenlivet Caribbean Reserve has been appreciated for its pleasant aroma and smooth, rich taste, some reviewers found it slightly underwhelming in delivering a robust Caribbean feel. The rum cask finish is noticeable but fleeting, with a finish that some felt could be longer. While it’s a nice dram, it seems some enthusiasts might seek out other whiskies for a more pronounced rum influence. Overall, it’s a good value for the price, making it worth a try for those interested in a unique whisky experience.
