Distillery: The Glenlivet
Region: Speyside, Scotland
Bottling: 12 Year Double Oak

Appearance: Honey, worn gold coin, thin legs, clear.
Nose: An indoor farmers market in the fall, tart, fresh produce, fruit, straw.
Palate: Bright, clean and light, green apples, apricot. The finish is soft and buttery, but not short.
Final Assessment: This is a good whisky. It is very approachable and it would make a good daily sipper for sure, but for me, this scotch lacks complexity. It is not “challenging” and does not stand out amongst others. I give this whisky a 72/100.
