The Glenlivet 12 Year Old Provence Edition
The Glenlivet 12 Year Old Provence Edition is a limited-edition Speyside single malt Scotch whisky inspired by the aromas and character of Provence. Official product information identifies it as a 12-year-old Glenlivet expression at 40% ABV and 70cl, with a portion finished in French wine and Provence Cru Classé wine casks.
The Glenlivet states that this 12-year-old single malt is based on ex-American oak and ex-European oak maturation, with a portion finished in hand-selected French wine casks and Provence Cru Classé wine casks. The official page notes French sweet wine influence for richness and ripe fruit, with Provence Cru Classé casks adding peach and floral lift.
In the glass it shows a golden amber hue. The aroma leads with white peach in syrup, toasted almond and floral meadow notes. On the palate, sweet juicy nectarine is layered with vanilla crème brûlée, marzipan and white chocolate, followed by warm floral honey and a smooth, complex finish.
This Provence Edition suits drinkers who enjoy approachable Speyside single malt with a fruit-led, floral profile. The presentation box also makes it suitable for gifting where a recognisable Scotch brand and a distinctive seasonal-style edition are preferred.
