1990s Glenlivet 21 old Gordon & MacPhail

The Glenlivet 21-year-old, bottled by Gordon & MacPhail, is a delightful single malt Scotch whisky. Let me share some tasting notes with you:

Nose: Caramelized pears, juicy peaches, and spicy notes of cinnamon and fragrant nutmeg.

Palate: Complex, fruity, and spicy, with dried apricots, juicy sultanas, and chocolate-coated ginger.

Finish: Long and rich, with warming spice.

This expression has a triple cask finish, having been matured in first-fill Oloroso Sherry, Tronçais Cognac, and Colheita Vintage Port casks. The result is a whisky that brings extra layers of depth, smoothness, and intriguing spiciness to The Glenlivet’s iconic smooth and fruity style. Luscious notes of caramelized pears and juicy sultanas intertwine with fragrant nutmeg and warming cinnamon from the Cognac cask influence.

Additionally, some other reviews mention flavors like dried grass, cedar, mustard seeds, rich fruits, and spicy wood, making it a well-rounded and enjoyable whisky
