Rather in the same way I am glad I was able last month to sample the Johnnie Walker Black 12 year old, if I haven’t tried them at all or if I haven’t tried them in years, I need to put assumptions and stereotypes on the back burner and give the liquid a chance.

The driver will input your year of birth into their device and may then require an ID check to complete the age verification process. As with trying the Johnnie Walker for the first time, I am glad I have had the chance to revisit this Glenlivet.You hereby represent and warrant that you are authorized to make any Contributions, that your Contributions and the use by us will not infringe or violate the rights of any third party. By using the Service, and by creating an account you represent, warrant and confirm that you are of legal age. The 12 is also now labeled as a double oak; he said that it’s always been aged in American and European oak, so it’s not a change in anything but the label.

Incidentally the same ranking would apply to those 3 ages of their competitor Glenfiddich, with the 15 Solera version being the best of their bunch. Your continued use of the Service after any such changes or updates take effect will constitute acknowledgement and (as applicable) acceptance of those changes or updates. For larger groups we can still obtain a high level of detail when studied closely and can rely on how light reflects on the completed bottles. I get light and slightly lasting tastes of cantaloupe, pineapples, sapodilla, starfruit, Fuji apples, honey and dried apricots. Similar to the nose, I get subtle and brief tastes of dried shiitake mushrooms, chaga powder and leather.The Glenlivet 12 Double Oak is now the regular expression of the 12 year old – it’s matured in European and American Oak casks. The warmth wasn't bad even nice feeling it travel all the way to my stomach and it was admittedly very smooth.

I think your ranking of the 3 varieties is spot-on and is identical to how I would have ranked them. The distillery DNA and American oak flavors are more noticeable from start to end, while he ex-sherry notes like the dates, cherries and milk chocolate are sparingly present on the nose and finish. The whisky matured for 6 years in traditional European oak casks, from which it was poured into American oak casks for the remaining 6 years. I had been intrigued by the Illicit Still as it was a Glenlivet with a healthy 48% ABV and without chill filtration. From the bottle and box, I only am given information that this whiskey is 40% ABV, matured in European and American oak casks, and has a 12 year age statement.

This lessened as the level in the bottle went down, with slightly different fruit flavours coming to prominence.
