Glenlivet 12 Year Old Double Oak 750ml + 1 Free Glenlivet Gift Glass

Discover Glenlivet 12 Year Old, a quintessential Speyside single malt that blends heritage, elegance, and smooth flavour. At 40 % ABV in a 750 ml bottle, this expression represents The Glenlivet’s signature style—double‑matured first in traditional oak, then American oak for that signature creamy vanilla finish.

Founded in 1824, The Glenlivet was the first licensed distillery in Speyside, established by George Smith. Its legacy includes trademark protection of “Glenlivet” and a rise to being one of the world’s best‑selling single malts, cradled in the scenic valley of Josie’s Well.

Tasting Notes

• Nose: Fragrant summer meadows, tropical fruits like pineapple, plus vibrant peaches, pears and gentle vanilla sweetness.
• Palate: Creamy and fruity—think candied nuts, vanilla shortbread and soft toffee notes, underpinned by citrus zest and subtle barrel tannin.
• Finish: Delicate marzipan, fresh hazelnut, and lingering lemon‑zest brightness.

Accolades

This whisky has earned global recognition, winning Silver at the World Whiskies Awards 2023 and Bronze at the International Wine & Spirit Competition (IWSC) 2023. In celebration of The Glenlivet’s 200th anniversary in 2024, the expression took Gold at the International Spirits Challenge (ISC) 2024. Earlier decades brought even more praise, including multiple medals at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition between 2005–2010.

History & Little-Known Facts

The Glenlivet’s origins trace back to George Smith’s licencing under the Excise Act of 1823—the first legal license in Speyside. To protect his distillery, he was even granted pistols for defence! Over time, his whisky became so renowned that other distillers in the valley couldn’t use the name “Glenlivet,” cementing its brand prestige.

Another fascinating tidbit: In 2021, barley seeds from the distillery travelled to the International Space Station, returning to Earth to be planted and distilled—blending innovation with age‑old tradition.
