Product Description

The Glenlivet has always been about moving forward and not remaining still. From establishing our distillery in a very remote valley in 1824 to continuously setting new standards. We are now going beyond the rugged Scottish Highlands to discover new influences to compliment our smooth & fruity house style. Caribbean Reserve is a sweet, tropical twist to the Glenlivet. To create this lively whisky, our makers finished a portion of the whisky in barrels which previously held Caribbean rum. The result is a smooth, sweet whisky. Perfect to enjoy with a refreshing mixer or neat, just the way you like it. Nose: Sweet notes of pear and red apple meet a fabulous tropical twist of ripe bananas in syrup. Palate: Rich caramel toffee notes are followed by mandarin orange, vanilla and honeydew melon. Well-balanced and exceptionally smooth. Finish: Citrusy and delicate.

What critics and judges wrote

IWSC judges · Silver · 2023
Elegant and well balanced with aromatics of digestive biscuits and spice with a layer of fresh fruit jam. Hints of burnt brûlée for a fruity toffee finish.

Banana bread, Madeira cake, and baked quince with a touch of sultanas, spicy notes with hints of cacao bean on the nose and palate, leading to a lingering spicy-dry finish.
Silver2022iwsc.net ↗
Sweet herbs with a spicy tang and a note of wax polish. The balance is wonderful, and the creamy milk chocolate and fresh fruit finish is profound.
Silver2021iwsc.net ↗
Enjoyably vibrant with a lovely concentration of fruit and spice: from soft plums and raisins and a complexity journeying through warming cloves and cinnamon.
Silver2020iwsc.net ↗
Honeyed fruit flavours and notes of freshly crushed flowers run throughout, with moreish toffee and bread providing complexity. An attractive, juicy, fruit-driven style.
Whisky Advocate · Gavin Smith · 2020
The nose is sweet with cane sugar, tropical fruits, malt, coconut, and banoffee pie. Smooth on the palate, relatively light-bodied, and easygoing, with clear rum notes, fudge, honey, cereal, and developing bitter orange. … Great for mixing.

Distiller · Stephanie Moreno
Malty notes play well with the orange, coconut, and a slight char smoke. … Fruity and sweet with that rum back note, the finish is a bit on the short side. But while Caribbean Reserve is present, it's pleasant.

Flavor scores are our estimates. A flavor scores higher when more critics mention it and when they describe it more strongly, so no single review sets the result. They are not a rating from any publication.
