This Easter, make room on the table for something truly timeless: Exceptional whiskies for unforgettable moments.
Depth and Complexity in Every Sip
The Glenlivet 21-Year-Old is a whisky of unparalleled depth and intricacy, crafted through a unique triple-cask maturation process that ensures exceptional smoothness and refinement. Aged in first-fill Oloroso Sherry, Troncais Cognac, and Colheita Vintage Port casks, each imparts distinct character—Oloroso Sherry adds deep sweetness and dried fruit notes, the Cognac cask enhances layers of nutmeg and warming spice, while the Port cask lends a velvety texture with hints of dark chocolate and juicy sultanas. Bursting with caramelized pears, juicy peaches, and a touch of spicy cinnamon and fragrant nutmeg, it unfolds into a long, rich, and warming finish with lingering spice and soft oak notes. Best paired with brie, green olive tapenade, and roasted almonds to complement its nutty and fruity undertones, this rare single malt is a testament to The Glenlivet’s mastery and is available at select premium liquor retailers.
