- Description
- The Glenlivet's 21-year-old underwent triple finishing in first-fill oloroso sherry casks, Troncais oak Cognac barrels, and colheita Port casks. The Speyside classic emerges with decadent layers of dried fruit, spice, and fortified wine sweetness, balancing the distillery's typical orchard fruit with rich wood influence.
