Some names in whisky carry more than just history, they carry a legacy. The Glenlivet: Original Since 1824 is more than a name; it’s the foundation of what we now know as Speyside single malt. Revered for its smoothness and clarity of style, The Glenlivet set the standard nearly two centuries ago and this Drambox edition lets you taste that pioneering spirit, one dram at a time.

Production Details:

Whether it's the flagship 12 Year Old or a rarer expression in the set, these whiskies reflect the brand’s consistent character: delicately complex, always approachable.

Perfect For:
Curious newcomers and longtime Glenlivet fans alike. Ideal for a relaxed evening of exploration, a whisky tasting night at home, or gifting someone their first Speyside experience in bite sized sips.

Expert Notes:
The Glenlivet was the first legal distillery in the parish of Glenlivet and the favorite of King George IV in 1822 (even before it was legal). Its style became so iconic that other distilleries once tried to borrow its name. This sampler set brings you closer to the original.

Customer Reviews:
🗣️ “Loved how I could try a few styles side-by-side. The 12’s still my favorite, but the surprise dram blew me away.”
🗣️ “Perfect intro to Speyside. Smooth, fruity, and easy-drinking, no harsh edges.”
🗣️ “My first Drambox and definitely not my last. The Glenlivet never disappoints.”

Interesting Fact:
The Glenlivet Distillery was granted its license in 1824, a bold move at the time, making it one of the trailblazers of legal whisky making in Scotland. It even inspired dozens of imitators who tried to cash in on its name.

Serving Suggestions:
Pour each dram into a tulip shaped glass, take your time, and sip neat. Add a few drops of water to reveal more floral and fruit notes. Great to pair with soft cheeses or light shortbread.

Distillery Background:
Tucked in a secluded valley in Speyside, The Glenlivet was founded by George Smith, who dared to go legal when others stayed in the shadows. Since 1824, it’s been a symbol of quality, consistency, and class. From royal approval to global acclaim, The Glenlivet has stayed true to its refined, smooth-drinking roots, a genuine original in every sense.
