The Glenlivet has launched a third expression to its celebrated Nàdurra range, as it continues to honour the historic traditions of making single malt whisky through new and innovative cask finishes.
Following the release of The Glenlivet Nàdurra Oloroso and The Glenlivet Nàdurra First Fill Selection in 2014, The Glenlivet Nàdurra Peated Whisky Cask Finish is the first release to have a subtle, smoky taste profile, having been finished in American oak casks that have previously held heavily-peated Scotch whisky. The aromatic, sophisticated notes are perfectly balanced with the classic and smooth, fruity house style for which The Glenlivet single malt has been famous since 1824.
The Global Travel Retail exclusive expression is bottled at 48% ABV, The Glenlivet Nàdurra Peated Whisky Cask Finish is inspired by the authentic production processes used at The Glenlivet Distillery by its founder, George Smith, who originally used peat smoke to dry the malted barley.
The Glenlivet Nàdurra Peated Whisky Cask Finish is available from October 2015 throughout domestic and Global Travel Retail markets, priced at US$89.
