The Glenlivet Founder's Reserve Whiskey

Owner:Pernod Ricard (France)
OriginUnited Kingdom
Manufactured:United Kingdom

The Glenlivet Founder's Reserve is a tribute to George Smith, who founded the Glenlivet Distillery in Speyside, Scotland, in 1824. This expression is designed to capture the original style of the distillery, characterized by its smooth and fruity profile, traditionally achieved through high-quality copper pot still distillation and aging in first-fill American oak casks.

The brand has a storied history as the first legal distillery in the Parish of Glenlivet. Over nearly two centuries, it has grown from a local operation into one of the world's most successful single malt scotch brands. While it maintains its traditional manufacturing roots in Moray, Scotland, the brand has transitioned through various ownership structures throughout its history.

Today, The Glenlivet is a flagship brand within the portfolio of Pernod Ricard. The French multinational acquired the brand as part regarding the Seagram's distribution in 2001. It remains one of the cornerstone spirits in Pernod Ricard's global whiskey portfolio, distributed to collectors and enthusiasts worldwide.
