Product Description
The Signatory warehouses are full of amazing whiskies, but there are a few that we return to when selecting casks to be bottled exclusively for TWE – sherry-matured Glenlivet is one of them. The refill cask adds a rich sherry influence, but still allows the core Glenlivet character to sing, and the whisky is soft and fruity, with a backbone of dried fruit and spice.
It’s the balance that’s impressive. Some sherry, but not too much sherry. Serge Valentin, whiskyfun.com

Tasting Notes
Tasting Notes by Billy Abbott (TWE)
Nose
Summer meadows and hedgerows, with honeysuckle, grass – both uncut and freshly mown – granny smith apples and a hint of nail varnish. Toffee and spiced cake batter notes build, especially after you add a drop of water.
Palate
Weightier than the nose suggests, with sweet cream fading to crunchy apples that become slowly stewed, surrounded by warming spice and dark fruit cake. The spice continues to build, picking up anise and liquorice, before receding to reveal sweet grain and spiced pie crust.
Finish
Quite hot, with cinnamon spice slowly fading, leaving behind apple skin, vanilla-sugar-dusted shortbread and autumnal leaves.
Comment
Spicy with sweet grain and pastry notes running through both nose and palate. The cask has done a lot here, but Glenlivet's fruity spirit is still the focus.
