Matured over 18 years in first and second-fill American oak and ex-sherry casks, this elegant single malt reveals layers of rich sweet fruit notes and indulgent vanilla butterscotch, balanced by warm, spicy depth. The result is a harmony of complex yet graceful flavours to be savoured. Every bottle is a true example of the quality and taste of The Glenlivet. Any bottle deserves pride of place in your cabinet... perhaps to be held back for a fitting occasion? It is, after all, crafted to impress.

The Glenlivet Captain's Reserve shines as a proud celebration of their Speyside craft, taking you on a golden adventure that begins with the finish. Inspired by Captain Bill Smith Grant, great grandson of Founder George Smith, the luscious liquid finds its unique honey and spicy notes through its journey from bourbon and sherry casks to a selective finish in casks that previously held Cognac. Bursting in sweet and fruity aromas, discover a combination of raisin-rich and signature citrus notes married with the creamy smoothness of The Glenlivet.

To truly capture the essence of George Smith's vision, The Glenlivet Founder's Reserve has been created using the time-honoured distillation methods that he introduced so long ago. Made with water from the same crystal-clear mountain streams, in the same cold, pure air, The Glenlivet Founder's Reserve is as smooth and fruity as the whisky that first ran from the original copper pot stills. Boasting the classic flavours of The Glenlivet bound up in a creamy, smooth texture, this expression is our tribute to the one who started it all.

The Glenlivet Founder's Reserve is a tribute to their visionary founder, George Smith, a trailblazer whose courage and craft established a legacy of scotch whisky making in Speyside. This single malt whisky is matured in traditional oak and first-fill American oak casks, offering a creamy, smooth palate brimming with the fruity, vibrant character at the heart of The Glenlivet.
