Glenlivet 15 Years French Oak Reserve
The finish in new and rich in aroma French Limousin oak casks from Dordogne gave this Single Malt Whisky aromatic notes combined with smooth, fruity and floral aromas.

Comment:

Taste: Smooth with Heavy Floral Notes, Sherry, Sweet, Definitely some Oak (As to be expected from an Oak Cask), Hints of Cinnamon and subtle hints of Nuts
Finish: Sweet Honey Apple, A light touch of peat maybe some smoke, with a nice alcohol and spice finish
Comment: The Glenlivet 15 YO French Oak Reserve definitely compliments a nice Habano or even a Maduro Cigar. Personally I find that whiskeys from The Glenlivet Distillery stand on their own without a cigar, however I find that I find the subtle aromas and flavors much easier when pairing them with a nice cigar (But then again that is just ME)
