Winning bid: £2,200
The first distillery to take out a licence after the Excise Act of 1823, the distillery was a favourite of King George IV who demanded nothing but Glenlivet during a visit to Edinburgh in 1821 - three years before it was legal! Glenlivet has given its name to the 'longest valley in Scotland', so called after several distilleries laid claim to the Glenlivet suffix to cash in on the distillery's sterling reputation. But only one can call itself The Glenlivet.
Bottled as part of Glenlivet's incredibly successful 'Cellar Collection' series, this is one of only 400 bottles released.
This bottling was predominantly for the US market and as a result is extremely scarce on this side of the pond.
