Glenlivet Illicit Still 12 years

Hey guys! How's it going?🙂.
.
A late weekend review this time for you guys 🙂.
.
Glenlivet Illicit Still 12 years is a limited edition whisky, inspired by the story of George Smith, the founder of Glenlivet born into a family of clandestine distillers who in turn distilled illegal whisky until 1824, when he was licensed. It is said that when you do something secretly, it seems even more delicious, this is confirmed by this Glenlivet expression that displays familiar fruity notes, characteristic of the whiskies that bear the signature of this distillery, but also brings some surprise elements reminiscent of the original whisky flavor, distilled in the early 1800s.
.
Here is my review:.
.
Nose: Fruity, sweet almonds, apple and pear pastries.
.
Palate: Sweet forest fruit, spiced apples.
.
Finish: Fruity, spicy, citrus.
.
Color: Gold.
.
Now, of course, I can't tell whether this release indeed does resemble the original whisky flavor of the 1800s (anyone have an 1800s Glenlivet laying around? 🤣), but I can say that I quite like it!
.
What do you guys think about this one? 🙂.
.
Cheers guys and have a good one 😉 🥃✨🥃

Andrei Muresan

My name is Andrei, Andrei-Paul Muresan. I’m an IT professional, born in the wonderful year of 1982, in the heart of Transylvania (for people who don’t know, the heart of Transylvania is a city called Cluj-Napoca, located in Eastern Europe, in Romania to be more exact). Here’s a photo of me, just to put a face to the name 😉 I mentioned Transylvania because most people are more likely to know where Transylvania is and not where Romania is 🙂 oh and by the way, vampires, they’re just ghost stories, sorry to disappoint everybody. As you might expect, given my profession, I’m passionate about technology and everything that surrounds it, but I am also a great spirits fan, and when I say spirits I mean scotch, whisk(e)y and cognac, and I also enjoy a good cigar (I never say no to a good cigar). I like to mix all that with a good tune and also a good game, I own a couple of game consoles. I am, by no means, an expert in the scotch/whisk(e)y/cognac/cigar world, but I am keen on learning everything there is to know about it, so I’m launching an invitation to you, to join me in this virtual journey as we learn together.
