Glenlivet was founded in 1824 and was the first Speyside distillery to be licensed to distill according to the new parliamentary act of 1823. It is one of the most famous distilleries in the world and is located near the small town of Ballindalloch, in the heart of the most famous Scottish region for the quality of its Whiskies.
The name stems from the area in which it is located, Livet Glen, considered as one of the most suitable places for the production of whisky thanks to the environmental conditions including water quality and climate. Glenlivet is one of the best-selling single malts in the world and in the 70s ranked first in the American market.
Distillates have different alcoholpercentages. So, we have defined a parameter allowing you to better understand and compare different prices. This parameter is calculated by dividing the bottle price by the alcohol content. The alcohol content (or strength) is the amount of pure alcohol (ethanol) contained in the distillate.
This parameter indicates the price of a single 4cl dosage of distillate. It is calculated by dividing the price of the bottle by its quantity (expressed in cl), then multiplying by the centilitres of the recommended single dose, as average in cocktail recipes.
