Glenlivet Nadurra is a "natural" dram, so simple, straight forward and refreshing that you just want to hug the Whisky master who came up with the idea.

George Smith was running an illegal still on the estate of the Duke of Gordon in the wee early 1800’s. The good old Duke ... ahem ... may or may not have been aware of the illicit operation in exchange for a personal supply. When the Duke helped sponsor legislation in 1823 that made Whisky distilling legal in the UK, it just so happens that George Smith was the first one granted a license. Now legal and above board, he naturally named his “new” business after the local parish—Glenlivet. Today Glenlivet is one of the "Big Three" single malt producers, being #1 in the United States and #2 worldwide. Their Whiskies are officially "Speyside," meaning that they are Highland malts produced along the river Spey, and the water for the Whisky mash comes somewhat famously from "Josie’s Well." Glenlivet produces Whiskies in a variety of ages and wood-matured combinations, and the remaining spirit not bottle as part of their Glenlivet lineup is considered an indispensable component in some of the most famous blends.
 
In Gaelic, Nadurra means "natural," but NOT in a new-age hippy-dippy politically-correct organic free-range kind of way. Some wonderful whisky master at Glelivet said, "Hey, why don’t we just make a nicely aged, clean, pure Whisky without fancy used casks or flavoring." Whoever that guy was, I want to shake his hand. 

The Glenlivet Nàdurra First Fill Selection is drawn from never before been used casks of American White Oak. Bottled at cask strength this beauty gets a great combination of flavours because of this technique which was used by Glenlivet back in the 1900's. This is one of the purest Glenlivet's available today!

Single Malt Scotch Whisky is made in Scotland using a pot still distillation process at a single distillery, with malted barley as the only grain ingredient. It must be matured in oak casks in Scotland for at least three years (most Single Malts are matured longer, though).
In Holland, The Glenlivet has adopted the slogan 'Discover the single malt that started it all'.
Blended Whiskies are the result of years of craftsmanship and dedication. A master blender does not simply wake up one day with a profound ability to create a cohesive and enjoyable liquid. From nosing the liquid to working out quantities of each different grain and malt to go into the blend, a master blender can take years, if not decades, to train.
Scotland is home to more than 20 million casks of maturing Whisky. That’s four for every person living there. Nuts!
Single malt stands for around 10% of the Scotch market. This is a malt containing only one grain, legally required to be barley in Scotland, and made at a single distillery.

A blended Scotch is a combination of different malts from different distilleries. It is typically made from grain Whisky but does include malt Whisky to give it a more complex body.
Categories of Scotch Whisky: Single malt, Blended malt (formerly called Vatted malt), blended, single grain and blended grain Scotch.
