Glenlivet Cellar Collection 1983 is a vintage Speyside single malt from The Glenlivet's Cellar Collection range, drawn from 1983 casks and bottled with a French Limousin oak finish as listed on the Solera Product Details below.
From the Producer
The Glenlivet was founded in 1824 by George Smith and John Gordon Smith at Ballindalloch, Moray, and is the oldest legal distillery in the Scottish Highlands (Wikipedia, "The Glenlivet distillery"). The Cellar Collection series is The Glenlivet's limited archive-style range, typically highlighting older vintages and unusual cask influences rather than cask-strength intensity. Wikipedia's listing of Cellar Collection releases explicitly includes the "French Oak Finish 1983" expression, which corresponds to the 1983 vintage here.
Tasting Profile
- Nose: Nuts, orchard fruit, toffee, caramel, vanilla and gentle spice.
- Palate: Elegant and mature, with honeyed malt, baked apple, citrus and French-oak spice.
- Finish: Medium-long and warming, with fruit, spice and polished oak.
Best For
Vintage Speyside tastings, Glenlivet-focused collections and gifting where age and old-school presentation matter more than headline proof.
