About this deal
Part of the Glenlivet distillery process is chill filtering, which, in taste tests, has been adjudged to impart a fuller, rounder, and richer flavour. Nevertheless this is a great product :-) Well crafted and clever - a lot too discover within a very narrow range of flavors. I stumbled upon miniatures of the 15yr French Oak Reserve and the 18yr, and picked them up to give them one more try.

WPT - it's just like you don't drink gentle white wines after a big heavy red - you just don;t taste much because the red has overwhelmed your palate.This is not a very complex dram, but slightly spiced and with a battle between sweet and bitter, it's a very nice one. Not quite as refined as I would like, but the amazing nose and fruity/spicy palate stand up rather well.

Finish: Subtly sweet and incredibly smooth, this malty delight has a strikingly pleasant fruity flavour.
Finish: A delectable fusion of succulent berries and indulgent dark chocolate that linger on the palate.
