Another bottling in Glenlivet’s Single Cask Edition series – this time it was aged for 18 years in cask #96421 and bottled in January 2016 with an outturn of 660 bottles. This edition has been given the title ‘Allargue’. Perhaps named after the nearby Allargue Estate.
Nose: Soft but oak-y barley, with notes of vanilla tablet and cinnamon sticks.
Palate: Nuttier on the palate – think oily walnuts and sugared almonds. Vanilla and cinnamon remain at the fore.
Finish: Lightly floral.
