Another good example of independent barrel aging from the Signatory Vintage company.
This Glenlivet 2006 Scotch whiskey was bottled in 2016 after being aged for 9 years in casks that previously held sherry.
The use of ex-sherry casks combined with the soft and enveloping Glenlivet single malt creates an exceptional whiskey for its aromatic structure and flavours.
All bottlings in the Signatory range are unfiltered and do not contain colourants, are full alcoholic strength and of limited production.
Few bottles are available in Italy.
Glenlivet 2006 whiskey aged 9 years in sherry cask has an unsurpassed quality/price ratio.
Glenlivet 2006 9 Year Old Whiskey makes a great gift for whiskey enthusiasts and collectors.
Tasting Notes:
Colour gold.
Nose: light and floral caramel initially, a waltz of sweetness accompanied by notes of vanilla and red fruit.
Palate: The palate is creamy, it is buttery, with a pinch of salt, followed by butter and a little black pepper.
Finish: Reasonably long with aniseed, white pepper and Parma violets.
Overall: A great expression of Single malt,
Glenlivet 2006 Scotch whiskey to pair with a good Arturo Fuente cigar.
