Special features: This 18-year-old single malt whisky from the renowned Speyside distillery Craigellachie-Glenlivet has been fully matured in refill Oloroso hogsheads.

Tasting Notes:

• Nose: Inviting notes of warehouse atmosphere, cooked raisins, and white chocolate pieces.
• Palate: Oily texture with flavors of leather, dark chocolate, matcha tea, and pistachios.
• Finish: A long aftertaste with impressions of Christmas cake, lemon juice, peanut butter, and milk chocolate raisins.

Distillery/Bottler: The Craigellachie-Glenlivet Distillery was founded in 1891 by the Craigellachie Distillery Co. Ltd., a group of blenders and merchants led by Alexander Edward. The distillery is located in the eponymous village in the heart of the Speyside region and is known for its characteristic, sulfurous character that gives the whisky depth and complexity. This 18-year-old single malt was bottled by Cadenhead's, one of the oldest independent bottlers in Scotland. Cadenhead's is known for its high-quality bottlings and its tradition of presenting whisky in its purest form.

**Note on the naming:**

The addition of “-Glenlivet” in “Craigellachie-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”.
