Due to global stock issues, gift boxes are subject to availability and cannot currently be guaranteed in online orders. The Glenlivet Founder's Reserve is an award winning single malt scotch whisky from the Speyside region of Scotland. It captures the distinct, smooth, fruity taste that its founder first envisioned. It's a classic single malt style of whisky but with an innovative, fresh taste. It starts with a skilful selection of casks that enhances the signature fruity flavours of The Glenlivet. The traditional oak casks are complemented by the selective use of American first-fill casks to give a hint of creamy sweetness - creating an exceptionally well-balanced and smooth malt. Serving suggestion: Drink to your own preference; straight up, in a cocktail, or simply with a drop of water to open the creamy, smooth character. When serving with ice, large cubes are recommended to allow slow dilution releasing the creamy, sweet characters. Winner of the 2019 International Wine & Spirits Competition (IWSC) Gold award.
George Smith, The Glenlivet's founder, didn't follow the lead of the illegal still owners. In 1824, he obtained a distiller's licence to become the first legal distiller in Glenlivet, Scotland. 50 years later, George finally won the exclusive right to call his whisky ‘THE Glenlivet', definitively marking it as the single malt that started it all. To this day, The Glenlivet remains the benchmark that all other Speyside single malts are measured against.
The Glenlivet Founder's Reserve makes the perfect gift to offer for a Christmas present, or for anniversaries, birthdays, Father's Day, Mother’s Day and other special occasions.
