The Glenlivet Single Cask Series is a premium whisky in which each bottle comes from an individual aged oak barrel, instead of being created by blending together the contents of various barrels. The whisky from each barrel is bottled separately, with each bottle bearing the barrel number and the bottling date. The individual barrel contributes unique characteristics to the finished whisky and is individually selected, so each release is excitingly different.
