🥃 Product Overview

The Glenlivet 12 Year Old Provence Edition begins with single malt Scotch whisky matured for 12 years before receiving an additional finish in carefully selected French wine casks, including prestigious Provence Cru Classé casks. This finishing process introduces a distinctly Mediterranean influence to The Glenlivet's classic Speyside character, bringing forward white peach, nectarine, floral honey, vanilla, marzipan, and creamy white chocolate.
