- Description
- The Glenlivet's 2006 vintage spent 16 years in a single first-fill sherry butt before bottling at cask strength (58.7% ABV) for Signatory's collection, concentrating the distillery's orchard fruit and floral notes while adding rich, dried fruit complexity from the wood. The sherry influence deepens the spirit's natural character without overwhelming the clean Speyside spirit at its core. Ideal for those who want Glenlivet's signature profile intensified and undiluted.
