- Description
- The Glenlivet's 2008 vintage matured exclusively in first-fill American oak and was released as a France-only expression, emphasizing the cask's influence on this classic Speyside malt. First-fill oak imparts pronounced vanilla, caramel, and light spice that complement the distillery's signature orchard fruit and floral notes. The texture is smooth with a medium finish. A regional exclusive offering more oak emphasis than the standard core range.
