The Glenlivet Nadurra First Fill Selection Review


22nd September 2015
The Glenlivet Nadurra First Fill Selection Review

The Glenlivet Nądurra First Fill Selection was 100% matured in American White Oak casks that have never before been used to mature Scotch whisky, as you would expect with first fill casks they impart hints of creamy vanilla to this wonderfully rich single malt.

William Morrison's Tasting Notes:

Bottled at a cask strength of 63.1% ABV

Nose: Creamy sweet vanilla fudge, fresh pear, coconut, touch of oak spice.

Taste:  Big barley sugar candy sweetness, vanilla, zesty oranges and lemon, pineapple, a lovely light touch of oak spice hanging around the background.

Finish: Refreshingly long. More vanilla and candied fruit, the oak spice comes more to the fore but is kept in check by the sweet candied fruit.

Comment: This is the second time I have reviewed the Glenlivet Nadurra First Fill Selection and I still love it, my review hasn't changed, it is like 2 of my favourite Glenlivet whiskies have come together - the Glenlivet 12 First Fill travel retail exclusive which sadly has been discontinued and the Glenlivet Nądurra 16. It really is a must try for any Glenlivet drinker or indeed any single malt drinker, an outstanding expression of The Glenlivet.

SMW Score 95/100

The Glenlivet Nadurra First Fill Selection is priced around £45 which is a great price for a whisky this good bottled at cask strength. Can you tell I am a Nadurra fan. The Glenlivet Nadurra First Fill Selection is available from specialist whisky shops such as The Whisky Exchange
