Glenlivet
In the early 19th Century, Glenlivet was the word for the best in whisky. Universally demanded by the aristocracy and the King, Glenlivet was the guarantee of a quality borne out of an unflinching conviction to produce the best there was. In 1824 George Smith was granted the first legal licence to distill in Glenlivet. From this date on, only this Scotch has had the right to call itself The Glenlivet.
Today, still considered the definitive Speyside malt produced in the Livet Valley, The Glenlivet exhibits the characteristic delicacy and softness of the region.
It is acclaimed for its balance and perfect finish and is the benchmark against which all other malts are measured.
The Glenlivet set the standard in quality and taste that went on to define the Speyside style of whisky and remains the benchmark that all other Speyside single malts are measured against.
