Distillery/Bottler: The Benriach-Glenlivet Distillery, founded in 1898, is known for its fruity and vibrant whiskies. Despite a brief closure in 1900 due to the Pattison crash, the distillery has maintained its place in the Scottish whisky landscape. This special whisky was bottled by Cadenhead's, an independent bottler with a long-standing tradition.
**Note on 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”.
