Glenlivet Pure Single Malt Whisky (1990's Bottling) 18 Year Old

Colour

Deep golden amber with coppery glints and a hint of mahogany.

Nose

Delicate, inviting nose with ripe orchard fruits, apple and pear, woven with vanilla sweetness and polished oak. Subtle notes of dried fruit and creamy toffee emerge, while citrus zest and a hint of spice lend complexity, yielding a refined, lingering aroma.

Palate

Silky and generously structured, the palate unfolds with rich dried fruit - raisin, fig, and orange zest - layered over velvety toffee and vanilla. Sherry-cask influence adds cocoa and dark chocolate, along with warm spice notes of cinnamon and clove. Silky oak lends maturity without heaviness, yielding a long, refined finish where fruit and cacao linger with a gentle sweetness.

Finish

Long, silky finish that glides from orchard fruit and vanilla into rich dried fruit, cocoa, and toasted spice. Subtle sherry sweetness lingers with polished oak, softly fading into a warm, elegant finale.
