FAQs

What casks are used?
A combination of first and second fill American and European oak — European oak adds spice and complexity, while first-fill American oak contributes tropical fruit and vanilla for a beautifully balanced multi-cask expression.

How does it compare to The Glenlivet 15 Year?
Three additional years of maturation and a more complex multi-cask approach — the 18 Year delivers greater depth, richness, and layered complexity than the 15 Year French Oak expression.

How should I drink it?
Neat to appreciate the full complexity of the multi-cask maturation — a splash of water can open up the tropical fruit and spice notes further.
