The Glenlivet<br />

Changi Airport<br />

Exclusive<br />

Celebrate Legacy with a Rare Single Cask<br />

Scotch Whisky<br />

The Glenlivet has launched The Glenlivet Burrelton<br />

Single Cask Edition at DFS in Singapore Changi Airport<br />

to appeal to whisky aficionados looking for a rare<br />

expression steeped in the heritage of the renowned<br />

distillery from the Speyside region.<br />

With only 214 bottles in existence, The Glenlivet Burrelton<br />

Single Cask Edition presents a unique opportunity for<br />

collectors to own a piece of The Glenlivet’s legacy.<br />

The Glenlivet Pop-Up Space is a newly opened experiential<br />

boutique and dedicated whisky space that offers personalised<br />

whisky appreciation opportunities for the discerning traveller.<br />

From <strong>16</strong> July to September this year, The Glenlivet Pop-<br />

Up Space will offer whisky enthusiasts travelling through<br />

Singapore opportunities to experience The Glenlivet Master<br />

Distiller’s Reserve Collection, a travel retail exclusive.<br />

The Glenlivet Burrelton Single Cask Edition is named after the<br />

small hamlet of Burrelton, a landmark on one of the original<br />

smuggling trails out of the Glenlivet Valley to the Scottish<br />

market town of Perth. The trail’s rugged peaks and sheer gorges<br />

provided cover for illicit distillers in the 18th and 19th century<br />

who wanted to hide from excise collectors. The routes were also<br />

originally used by the founder of The Glenlivet, George Smith.<br />

TASTING NOTES<br />

Nose: Notes of soft red apple and ripe pear, with a delicate oaky<br />

and hazelnut background<br />

Palate: Incredibly smooth with apple flavours echoing the nose,<br />

soft sweet vanilla fudge and a touch of cinnamon<br />

Finish: Slightly dry with a soft oaky finish<br />

The Glenlivet Burrelton Single Cask Edition is available at the<br />

RSP of US$500 at DFS Changi Airport, as well as at The Glenlivet<br />

Pop-Up Space located at the upper deck at DFS Changi Airport<br />

Terminal 2.<br />
