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.
