Excellent scotch. The cognac gives it a distinct and appealing flavor. Very smooth.

Great

Josh,
Scotch whisky that’s got more flavor than you'd think but is harsher than the Macallan 18. Pepper lingers a bit but is balanced by a slight... is that, butter?
 
Andrew
Andrew,
Love it... Nice go to when I have beginner scotch drinkers come over... Most people don't believe you can taste fruit in a Scotch... So I like to show them this and see their reactions....
 
Sam
Sam,
Love the apricot note here. Nice and fruity!

Incredible fruity rich flavor
 
John
John,
Good caramel color and nose is woody. The port barrels give it a very distinct taste and flavor. It is a little light on the finish but ultimately a good drinking whiskey .

Michael,
Wow, what a nice surprise. The cognac finish is superb. Easy drinking yet not boring at all. You’re going to want more and more. Solid value, at least in my locale.
 
Nicholas
Nicholas,
Creamy, smooth flavor. Heavy Pear syrupy flavor. Easy finish - especially for a single malt scotch
 
Bennie
Bennie,
This was my first venture in Glenlivet and Scotch in general. Was tempted since it was in Cognac Cask so decided to give it a go. Glad I did. A nice break from my norm.

Christopher,
I usually hate glenlivet. but I enjoy cognac & had never seen a scotch aged in cognac barrels before, so I gambled on a bottle. Best decision I've made on an unknown bottle, Easily in my top 5.

Doug,
Already a fan of glen-12, so the 14 cognac was an easy choice. And it did not disappoint. Smoky, peat, smooth. Delicious! Finished my first dram and immediately ordered two more bottles. Cheers!
 
Daniel
Daniel,
Deeelicious. I love the 18yr, and this comes close, but about half the price. A little more burn than I like on the finish, but that’s the only reason I didn’t give it a 10. Smells wonderful. Very smooth initial mouthfeel, and sweet oak on the palate with a long finish.. This will become a regular for me.

Initial spice notes moving quickly to sweet toffee. Light finish
 
Michael
Michael,
Don’t like the cognac finish. Unlikable taste I can’t place.
 
Stephen
Stephen,
Still exploring Scotch but this was an instant favorite! Fruity aroma and slightly sweet on the palate with a pleasant finish. I found it better without water. Like this better than the 15-year offering.
 
Jared
Jared,
Good nose definitive oak scent. Smooth and complex finish really enjoy
 
Aaron
Aaron,
I found this one somewhat lacking in flavor complexity. It’s not bad but it’s nothing to write home about. The 15 is much better.
 
Bryan
Bryan,
Loved it.
 
Gary
Gary,
This has become my favorite. Amazing.
 
Jacob
Jacob,
Was at a Glenlivet tasting and I greatly preferred this to the 15 and 18! The cognac finish was spectacular and something everyone should try! For a relatively young scotch this may be the best I've had
 
Michelle
Michelle,
A splash of water really opens up this very smooth and pleasant offering from The Glenlivet. Hints of vanilla on the tongue and then a great finish
 
Kent
Kent,
Really like this! Interesting and enjoyable nose, taste, and finish... All complex with something new each time I go back. Will be buying again.🥃
 
Brandon
Brandon,
Smooth with a subtle burn and flavors of cognac. Not as bold as I was expecting but nice.
 
Michelle
Michelle,
Very smooth, no bite to it and it had great finish.
