Glenlivet Connoisseurs Choice Single Cask #800768 Whisky 20 Year Old · 2002 Vintage

Colour

Golden amber with sunlit honey and a warm coppery glow.

Nose

Opulent vanilla and creamy toffee rise from the first-fill bourbon cask, wrapping around ripe pear and orchard fruit with a bright lemon zest. Subtle honey and coconut echo through soft oak, while a delicate spice lingers—an inviting, warm aroma that hints at age-softened richness.

Palate

Silky and full-bodied, this opens with vanilla bean, caramel and honey, harmonized by ripe pear and green apple. Bourbon-cask influence adds toasted coconut, white spice (cinnamon, nutmeg) and a subtle citrus lift. The 56.2% ABV lends a warming, velvety mouthfeel that lingers with refined, oak-kissed sweetness.

Finish

An expansive, lingering finish of vanilla cream and toasted oak, brightened by citrus zest and gentle baking spices. Dried fruit and caramel drift through, leaving a suave warmth that endures, with a refined kiss of almond and a lasting touch of sweetness.
