Description
Glenlivet Nadurra first fill selection has been matured in first fill American white oak casks and bottled at cask strength in July 2017. The casks have never before been used to mature Scotch whisky. These are a popular choice of distillers at The Glenlivet since the early 1900's, they impart hints of creamy vanilla to the wonderful creamy whisky.
Tasting Notes
| Nose |
| Distillery: An enticing mix of soft vanilla fudge notes and sweet ripe pears engulf the senses.
The WSD: Peach cobbler, almonds, opal fruits - all the flavours mixed together, with vanilla pod seeds in the background. |
| Taste |
| Distillery: A tantalisingly tropical mix of juicy pineapple and ripe banana cut with a zesty citrus flourish.
The WSD: A burst of fruitiness and spice all mixed together, wow, franzipan, tropical fruits in pineapple juice, spiced oranges. |
| Finish |
| Distillery: Medium and refreshing.
The WSD: You certainly feel this going down leaving a waxy trail. |
