The Glenlivet Captain's Reserve Single Malt Scotch Whisky is selectively finished in high-quality Cognac casks. This premium single malt scotch whisky has a rich and intense flavour coming from the raisin-sweet taste of Cognac that complements the signature creamy smoothness of The Glenlivet. After maturing this Speyside single malt Scotch whisky in bourbon and sherry casks, The Glenlivet whisky is finished in ex-cognac casks for at least 6 months, creating a unique rich intense flavour. The Glenlivet Captain's Reserve Single Malt Scotch Whisky is inspired by the unique character of its namesake, Captain Bill, that will take you on a journey from the misty glens of Scottish Speyside to the rolling vineyards of French Cognac with every sip. 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.
