The Glenlivet Nàdurra Oloroso er en ny aftapning der kommer til at stå ved siden af Nàdurra fra bourbon fade. Nàdurra Oloroso har kun ligget på tidligere-sherry fade. Der er tale om first fill sherry fade fra Jerez i Spanien.
Nikki Burgess, Global Brand Director for The Glenlivet hos Chivas Brothers, udtaler:
“The Glenlivet Nàdurra is the purest expression of The Glenlivet that captures the original passion and production methods of George Smith’s distillery. We know that whisky connoisseurs appreciate these qualities at the heart of the range, and by expanding the Nàdurra range we aim to consolidate our strong and innovative offering in the craft single malt arena.
Each expression in The Glenlivet Nàdurra range is crafted in small batches using traditional production methods and is matured exclusively in a different cask-type, showcasing the versatility and flawless quality of The Glenlivet spirit. Unlike most modern whiskies, the range is bottled without chill-filtration, which offers the additional complexity, body, and texture of a whisky that has just been drawn from the cask.
Refreshed packaging demonstrates the handcrafted nature of Nàdurra through prominent batch number and cask-type stamps, an artisanal typeface, an emphasis on the Gaelic translation of Nàdurra, and a distinctive handmade finish."
“The Glenlivet Nàdurra Oloroso presents a rare opportunity to taste The Glenlivet aged exclusively in ex-Oloroso casks, which we anticipate to be extremely popular with whisky fans and an enticing purchase for travellers in Travel Retail when it launches. As we continue to release additional twists on the original The Glenlivet Nàdurra, we look forward to showcasing different cask experiences to an increasing number of discerning drinkers,” tilføjer Nikki Burgess.
The Glenlivet Nàdurra Oloroso vil være at finde i Travel Retail Europe fra maj 2014.
