Glenlivet 50 yr Winchester 48% 750ml Single Malt Scotch Whisky (special Order; Call For Info)
| Vintage: | 1964 |

| Description: | History,. Matured in a single American oak hogshead (as far as I understand from my chat with Brand Ambassador Phil Huckle) this whisky was laid down back in 1964 by none other than Captain Bill Smith-Grant, the final distilling descendant of the distillery's founder, George Smith. The Winchester Collection therefore represents a special piece of history for The Glenlivet, a final liquid link with the family that started it all back in 1824. Each bottle is presented in a hand-blown decanter incorporating rose gold and Cairngorm stone (a type of dark quartz or somesuch - sometimes known as 'the whisky stone') with the handcrafted cabinet to finish a product that's both precious and exhibits top British craftsmanship inside and out. Tasting Notes,. Nose: The perfect marriage of spirit and cask releases a wonderfully rich aroma of fruity pear and peach nectar, which envelops the nose. Complemented by juicy, sweet raisins, dark chocolate and a fondant orange crme, intermingled with a tantalising honeycomb crunch sweetness that gives incredible depth. Palate: Bursting with luscious fruit flavours of ripe pears and oranges, black cherries and smooth creamy toffee, resulting in a fantastically velvety texture. In the background, caramelised sugar and candy flavours elevate the richness of the taste. Finish: Exceptionally smooth and luxurious |
