The Glenlivet XXV

Glenlivet has released The Glenlivet XXV, a new premium 25-year-old whiskey. The Glenlivet is currently the number two premium single malt in the world, and the XXV has become the oldest permanent release in that age range. Distilled in 1980, and finished in Sherry casks for at least two years before bottling, the whiskey has notes of honey and malt with a fruity palate. The Glenlivet XXV is presented in an impressive wooden gift box, with a slab of limestone with the name inscribed on it. Inside you'll find a booklet discribing the roles of the people responsible for creation of XXV, along with a ‘certificate of quality’ signed by three members of the team.

Each box will retail for around $350 and will be available this fall.
