The Glenlivet Caribbean Reserve Whisky
The Glenlivet Caribbean Reserve is a bold and tropical twist on a classic Speyside whisky. Finished in ex-Caribbean rum barrels, this no-age-statement single malt infuses The Glenlivet’s signature smooth, fruity character with a warm, exotic richness that makes it stand out in the range.
On the nose, it bursts with aromas of ripe banana, toffee, and citrus peel, balanced by subtle floral notes. The palate is creamy and lively, offering flavours of caramelised pineapple, brown sugar, mango, and vanilla, with a gentle rum sweetness that enhances — rather than overwhelms — the classic Glenlivet profile. The finish is smooth and moderately long, with lingering hints of tropical fruit and soft spice.
What makes the Caribbean Reserve so good is its playful innovation. It respects the delicate elegance of Glenlivet’s core DNA while adding a sun-soaked, island-inspired layer of flavour that feels fresh and accessible. It’s ideal for summer sipping, whether neat, over ice, or mixed in a premium whisky cocktail. For those seeking a Speyside malt with a sweet and spirited twist, The Glenlivet Caribbean Reserve delivers a satisfying balance of familiarity and flair. It’s whisky with a holiday vibe in every glass.
