Last week I reviewed The Glenlivet Twist and Mix New Manhattan. This week, let’s talk about their Old-Fashioned ready-made cocktail. Like the New Manhattan, twisting the cap releases a mixture that goes into the cocktail. The Old Fashioned is also a 375ml bottle at 40% ABV and retails for $21. This cocktail is not bad…

The Glenlivet Twist and Mix New Manhattan
Glenlivet has entered the ready-made cocktail chat and have released this New Manhattan and Twist and Mix Old Fashioned. I had both today, but I’ll be talking about their Manhattan. This cocktail is made from The Glenlivet single malt Scotch and natural flavorings. What’s neat, twisting the cap releases a mixture that goes into the…
The Glenlivet Caribbean Reserve
I recently purchased this mini bottle to avoid having to buy the big bottle. Honestly, I prefer to buy small bottles. They are cheaper and if I don’t like the juice, they don’t sit on our shelves. This whisky is for those who enjoy whisky on the sweeter side. Nose: sweetness and tropical fruitPalate: caramel,…

The Glenlivet 14 Year Cognac Cask Selection
It was 90 degrees this weekend in Boston! The whisky drinking days are slowly disappearing but, fear not, I have a few more posts before that happens. This little guy (50ml) I got for free at the liquor store because they couldn’t get it to scan. It was an absolute win for me. I always…

Glenlivet’s Enigma comes in a beautiful matte black bottle with a puzzle display in the front. They encourage you to solve the puzzle and share with them. It’s a no-age-statement…

The Glenlivet Founder’s Reserve
The Glenlivet 12 year-old is one of my go to everyday drinking whiskies. The name Glenlivet speaks for itself. So when I heard that Glenlivet Founder’s Reserve is slowly replacing the 12 year-old, I was taken a back. No, this is not a Halloween prank (for those that didn’t know), it’s happening. Founder’s Reserve was…
Women Who Whiskey – Boston Chapter
One of the scariest things to do, in my opinion, is to attend an event where no one knows your name. Walking into my first Women Who Whiskey event was terrifying. The room was full of women in conversation, they were laughing and having a good time. In a bit of a panic I began…
Glenlivet 18 year-old
Happy New Year! We are kicking 2016 off with a brand that doesn’t need an introduction, Glenlivet. To be honest, this is a brand I have truly come to appreciate and enjoy within recent years. Within the Glenlivet range I have tasted the 12, 15, 16 Nadurra Cask Strength and the 21 year-old Archive. My…
