Description
Matured full term in a 1st fill sherry hogshead, this 14-year-old Glenlivet was originally up around 65% at cask strength, so Whisky Sponge brought it all the way down to 53% as the team felt it revealed a much easier, juicier and more despicably fruity profile at this strength.
The label artwork for this release celebrates all the hours the Sponge spends tirelessly toiling away in the ancient data mines of the Whiskynet – harvesting numbers for the great spreadsheet which must be updated and refined eternally.
Whisky Sponge comments:
“Here at Decadent Drinks, we are all about data! This gorgeous 2007 Glenlivet has been bottled in special celebration of our precious pile of data that we keep in a secret cupboard!
