Cadenhead's Glen Elgin-Glenlivet 12 Years · Palo Cortado Finish since 2023
Special features: This 12-year-old Glen Elgin Single Malt Whisky was transferred in 2023 to noble Palo Cortado sherry casks, a rare type of sherry that combines both dry and nutty-sweet aromas. This special maturation gives the whisky an extraordinary depth and complexity.
Tasting Notes:
- Nose: A fascinating combination of maple bacon, poached pears in red wine, pomegranate, and cranberry.
- Palate: Multi-layered sweetness with fruity and subtly savory accents.
- Finish: Medium-long, characterized by candies, creamy tones, strawberries, cranberries, and pomegranates.
Distillery/Bottler: The Glen Elgin-Glenlivet Distillery, founded in 1898, is located in the green valleys of Speyside, about 10 miles east of Inverness. It is known for producing single malt whiskies with complex aromas. This whisky was bottled by Cadenhead's, a renowned independent bottler known for its high-quality releases.
**Note on the naming:**
The addition “-Glenlivet” is historically based and refers to the origin from the renowned Glenlivet region in Speyside. This designation was previously used by many distilleries to indicate the quality and geographical location of their whisky. There is no connection to the brand “The Glenlivet”.
