Glenlivet
12 YO.
Been through a few of these in the latter part of this year really like it.
Anyone else gargled a drop or two?

Not yet, though it's a reasonable price by the looks of things so might be tempted at some point.
Any more positive comments or reviews for the Glenlivet 12YO then... Should I buy? If so, why? -
personally i like glen fiddich better..Comment

I'm no whisky expert Si, but I find it a light, clean drop with a fresh finish if that makes sense? I'm crap at the particular nuances of flavour profiles, otherwise I'd write more cigar reviews on here. Sorry I'm not much help there. Perhaps one of the guys can help me out with with a description. I could blag something off the side of the bottle, but that wouldn't be fairOriginally posted by simonjgriffithshr View Post
It says there, 'vanilla' which I can subtley pick out on the finish.

That's a bit like me saying I like VW Golfs, and you saying you like Fords. Which one and why, as I'm curious about any comparisonsOriginally posted by tupacboy View Post

(I'd hazard a guess, the equivalent (12yo))...
Thanks for the extra info cj. No worries about the nuances of the taste (I can just about get my head around smokey and peaty...
).

Yeah I had a bottle a few months back. I must admit I didn't find it particularly exciting, though I'll agree with your sentiments on it not being too heavy.

I would liken it to the JL PC in cigar terms.
You can drink it any time of the day.

So if you take six years off the 18YO, which was excellent, you're left with a nice drop

Livet is too perfumy to the tastes and smell. I think they use rose water.Originally posted by cj121 View PostThat's a bit like me saying I like VW Golfs, and you saying you like Fords. Which one and why, as I'm curious about any comparisons
