<p>Boasting the classic flavours of The Glenlivet bound up in a creamy, smooth texture, The Glenlivet Founder’s Reserve single malt whisky is our tribute to the man who started it all.&nbsp;</p><p>When George Smith began distilling, The Glenlivet had no age statements and he selected whisky from casks of a range of ages.&nbsp;</p><p>We have replicated this freedom with The Glenlivet Founder’s Reserve single malt scotch whisky, selecting whisky from a variety of traditional aged oak casks.</p><p><strong>To truly capture the essence of George Smith’s vision,&nbsp;</strong></p><p><strong>The Glenlivet Founder’s Reserve single malt whisky has been created using the time-honoured distillation methods that he introduced so long ago.</strong></p><p>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.&nbsp;</p><p>These unique, lantern-shaped copper stills, designed by the man himself, are not the only important tools in our distilling legacy.&nbsp;</p><p>The traditional oak casks in which we mature the whisky give each expression its own distinct characteristics.&nbsp;</p><p>Then, to lend a modern twist to the flavour of the expression, Master Distiller Alan Winchester marries together a selection of the aged oak casks and American first-fill oak casks.&nbsp;</p><p>American first-fill oak casks are those that have never before been used to mature whisky.&nbsp;</p><p>Selective use of these casks provides a smooth, creamy sweetness that mingles harmoniously with the delicate flavours and complex fruity tones already present in the whisky.</p><h2>TASTING NOTES</h2><p><strong>CASK</strong></p><p>Traditional Oak and American First Fill</p><p><strong>COLOUR</strong></p><p>Pale gold</p><p><strong>PAIR WITH</strong></p><p>Light dishes of salmon</p><p><strong>FLAVOUR</strong></p><p>Creamy sweetness and zesty fruits</p><p><strong>FINISH</strong></p><p>Long, creamy, smooth</p><p><strong>NOSE</strong></p><p>Citrus fruit, sweet orange</p><p><strong>PALATE</strong></p><p>Zesty orange, pear, toffee apples</p>
