George Smith, our founder, was a trailblazer with an irrepressible spirit. In creating a whisky in his honour we were understandably keen to do him justice. The Glenlivet Founder’s Reserve captures the distinct, smooth, fruity taste that he first envisioned in 1824 and for which we are still renowned today. And because we remain as dedicated to innovation as our founder ever was, we’ve given this classic single malt a contemporary twist.

The Glenlivet was the first legal distiller in Scotland (1824) and the only one allowed to be called 'The Glenlivet'. What Grande Champagne is to Cognac, the glen of the river Livet is to Speyside - the most famous speyside highland malts.
