The exceptional character of?The Glenlivet?spirit is apparent even before the cask ageing process begins, a result of the unique lantern shaped pot stills we use at The Glenlivet. For The Glenlivet Founder’s Reserve, skillful selection of casks enhances the signature fruity flavours of The Glenlivet with traditional oak casks being complemented by selective use of American first-fill casks to give a hint of creamy sweetness ? creating an exceptionally well-balanced and smooth malt.? ??The Glenlivet?has been distilled for pleasure since 1824. Our founder, George Smith, believed whisky as the ultimate pleasure should be made unhurried, as time and care created the highest quality and flavoursome product. George?s innovative thinking, technique and the best ingredients created a whisky that set the standard for the region of Speyside.? ??

To truly capture the essence of George Smith?s vision, The Glenlivet Founder?s Reserve has been created using the time-honoured distillation methods that he introduced so long ago. Made with water from the same crystal-clear mountain streams, in the same cold, pure air, The Glenlivet Founder?s Reserve is as?smooth?and?fruity?as the whisky that first ran from the very first copper pot stills. These unique, lantern-shaped copper stills, designed by the man himself, are not the only important tools in our distilling legacy. The traditional oak casks in which we mature the whisky give each expression its own distinct characteristics.?
