About the distillery

The Glenlivet is one of the foundational names of Speyside whisky and helped establish the region’s reputation for smooth, approachable single malts. Historically influential enough that other distilleries once attempted to borrow its name, it became one of the first globally recognized single malt brands. Its style generally emphasizes orchard fruit, soft malt sweetness and elegance over heaviness or peat.
