Description
The Glenlivet's 38-year-old expression, distilled in 1973 and bottled in 2012 without chill filtration by Berry Bros. & Rudd, represents a rare window into classic Speyside from the pre-modern era. Nearly four decades of maturation have yielded a whisky of considerable elegance and refinement, with delicate fruit, oak complexity, and subtle floral notes. The natural presentation preserves subtle flavours often lost in standard processing. A museum-quality bottle for dedicated collectors of aged Scottish single malt.
