Product Description:
The Glenlivet 12 Year Jamaica Edition Single Malt Scotch Whisky Rum Cask Finish
Introducing The Glenlivet 12 Year Jamaica Edition, a spirited journey from tranquil Scottish glens to sun-soaked shores. Building on the time-honored Speyside benchmark of smoothness, this limited-edition marries that classic elegance with the warmth and brightness of Jamaican rum casks infusing tropical flair into every golden drop.
Tasting Notes
- Nose A vivid tropical bouquet lush notes of pineapple, mango, and banana peel, lifted by creamy vanilla and a soft burst of green apple.
- Palate Smooth yet vibrant, unfolding layers of juicy mango, bright citrus, and creamy toffee, enriched by a teasing hint of molasses from the rum cask.
- Finish Clean and gently sweet with lingering tropical warmth, a delicate oak echo, and a whisper of Rum-spiced clarity.
Serving Suggestions
- Neat The purest way to experience its dual heritage Speyside finesse meets Caribbean brightness.
- On the Rocks A single large cube softens the edge and mellows the rum-finish, creating a refreshing sensation.

Signature Cocktail “Tropical Glen”:
- 2 oz Glenlivet 12-Year Jamaica Edition
- ½ oz coconut syrup
- 2 dashes citrus bitters
- Stir over ice, strain into a chilled coupe, garnish with a toasted pineapple leaf—its flavor is a sunset in a glass.
Why This Edition Stands Out
This is Speyside meets surf. Crafted with intention, a portion only of the core 12-Year expression is selectively finished in authentic Jamaican rum casks bringing balanced vibrancy without compromising the whisky’s elegant foundation. It’s a limited-release masterpiece for collectors and the curious alike.
