Glenlivet 19 Year Old Smooth & Rich Cask Master’s Collection

Experience a rare fusion of heritage and innovation with The Glenlivet 19 Year Old Smooth & Rich. A centerpiece of the prestigious Cask Master’s Collection, this Speyside Single Malt is a travel-exclusive release crafted by Master Blender Kevin Balmforth.
What sets this expression apart is its pioneering maturation process. After 19 years in a combination of American and European oak, the liquid undergoes a selective finish in Scottish Oak casks. This marks a historic first for The Glenlivet, utilizing local timber to pay homage to the unique terroir of the Livet Valley and the rugged soul of Scottish culture.

The Tasting Experience

  • Nose: An inviting bouquet of sweet raspberries and cherry compote, balanced by the warmth of toasted hazelnuts and the zest of freshly grated ginger.
  • Palate: A velvety texture revealing notes of stewed apples and creamy butterscotch, followed by the deep fruitiness of homemade blackcurrant jam and a hint of nutmeg spice.
  • Finish: Exceptionally long, smooth, and rich, leaving a lingering warmth of delicate spices.

The Legacy of The Glenlivet

The story of The Glenlivet began in the remote, mist-shrouded Livet Valley—a perfect sanctuary for illicit distillation. It was here that founder George Smith perfected his craft before making history in 1824 as the region’s first legally licensed distillery.
By 1884, after a landmark legal battle to protect its reputation for superior quality, the distillery earned the exclusive right to be called "The Glenlivet." Today, the distillery continues Smith’s vision of "breaking traditions" by exploring unique cask finishes and setting new global standards for Single Malt Scotch Whisky.
