CompareMatured in fine oloroso sherry and bourbon casks for 12 years, this special whisky is the perfect example of the unique speyside style. This 12-year-old single malt whisky has a sweet, fruity taste with notes of pear, butterscotch, cream, and oak with a long, smooth, mellow finish.
The 15 Year Old gets its distinctive rich and exotic character from a process of selective maturation in which a proportion of the spirit is matured in French oak casks. In fact, we at The Glenlivet were one of the first to use French oak for making whisky, a technique that has since been imitated the world over. The Limousin oak we use is cut in France’s Dordogne region, where it’s often used to mature cognacs. Its low density allows whisky to sink deep into the wood, and we carefully control how long the whisky matures in the casks so as not to overpower the desired result: a unique, pleasing spiciness.

Originally released to the travel retail market, Double Black combines the rich, malty flavour of Black Label with slightly peatier whisky and casks that were more heavily charred. The result is a toasty, smoky whisky with Johnnie Walker’s usual rich, malty core.

Established on Dublin’s Bow Street in 1780, John Jameson set about creating the world’s most loved Irish whiskey. For the next 200 years there was always a descendant of John Jameson working for the company, with each generation building on the success of the last. The Bow Street Distillery finally closed in 1975, with its operations moving to Midleton, Co. Cork.
