The Glenlivet Captains Reserve

The Glenlivet Captain’s Reserve single malt scotch whisky offers a rich and intense taste.
 
Meet The Glenlivet Captain Reserve, a combination of raisin-rich and signature citrus notes married with the creamy smoothness of our one and only, The Glenlivet.
 

The luscious liquid finds its unique honey and spicy notes through its journey from bourbon and sherry casks to a selective finish, meaning our makers have finished a portion of this whisky in casks that previously held Cognac. Bursting in sweet and fruity aromas, The Glenlivet Captain’s Reserve shines as a proud celebration of our Speyside craft, taking you on a golden adventure that begins with the finish. Inspired by Captain Bill Smith Grant, great grandson of our Founder George Smith. A new taste exploration by The Glenlivet that makes us THE Whisky.
