About this whisky
In 1824, deep in the rugged beauty of Speyside, George Smith became the first licensed distiller in the parish of Glenlivet, defying tradition and setting a new standard for Scotch whisky. The Glenlivet Founder’s Reserve pays tribute to his pioneering spirit, inspired by the original recipe that made the Glenlivet name famous worldwide. Crafted using traditional copper pot stills identical in style to Smith’s original, this whisky captures the light, smooth, and fruity character that has defined The Glenlivet for nearly two centuries.
