Speyside Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Bottled By: Signatory Vintage 70cl / 43.1%
Signatory Vintage has to be up there with the best of the independent bottlers in the industry and to celebrate the 30th Anniversary they have released a collection of exceptional bottlings from many sought after distilleries.
This Glenlivet was distilled in 1973 and aged for 45 years.
Initial maturation was in hogshead and then it was finished in a single sherry butt for 82 months before being bottled in 2018 with a yield of just 394 bottles.
This bottling is a harmonious combination of softness and energy and the sherry finish evokes the smells and flavours of autumn.
The bottle is presented in a black lacker box with 2 Signatory Vintage branded Glencairn glasses.
