Nàdurra Oloroso is part of The Glenlivet’s range that uses traditional 19th-century production methods. It matures in first-fill Oloroso sherry oak casks from the Spanish region of Jerez. The sherry-soaked wood infuses rich, sultry flavors of dried fruit and warm spice. Unlike most modern whiskies, Nàdurra Oloroso is non-chill filtered, retaining all the body you’d expect from a whisky drawn straight from the cask. It’s a bright, vivacious gold liquid with enticing aromas. Smooth, creamy, and indulgent, this whisky exemplifies the fusion of Spanish passion and Speyside tradition.
