The history of Glayva Whisky Liqueur
Glayva Whisky Liqueur is produced by Whyte and Mackay Ltd. Whyte and Mackay Ltd. is one of the biggest brands in the whisky business and the blend of the same name is even synonymous with Scotch whisky in some parts of Scotland. In addition to the world-famous blend, Whyte and Mackay also produces many other products, such as Glayva Whisky Liqueur. The secret recipe for Glayva Liqueur dates back to 1947 and has remained unchanged since then. Glayva Liqueur was created by whisky merchant Ronald Morrison, who also gave Glayva Liqueur its name, which translated from Gaelic means "very good!". These are said to have been the words of one of Ronald Morrison's employees when he tried the liqueur for the first time.
The production of Glayva Whisky Liqueur
As with many recipes in the drinks industry, the exact composition of Glayva Whisky Liqueur is a well-kept secret. What is known is that Glayva Whisky Liqueur is a blend of long-aged Scotch malt whiskies and herbs, spices, fruit and honey. For example, mandarins from the Mediterranean, almonds and cinnamon from the Far East and honey from Scotland are used for this fine liqueur. Glayva Whisky Liqueur is bottled at an untypically high 35% ABV for a liqueur. The high alcohol content contributes positively to the complex taste of the Glayva Whisky Liqueur.
The taste of the Glayva Whisky Liqueur
The Glayva Whisky Liqueur manages to walk the tightrope of being complex and yet soft. The aromas of the Highland Scotch Whisky are well expressed and the nose and palate reveal fruity aromas and many nuances of herbs and spices. The aftertaste of the Glayva Whisky Liqueur is unusually long, complex and warming for a liqueur - almost like a malt whisky. While many consumers drink the Glayva Whisky Liqueur neat, there is also a growing group that likes to enjoy it as a long drink. Mixtures with ginger ale, cranberry juice or naturally cloudy apple juice are particularly recommended.

etwas zu leicht
Ein wirklich schöner Likör, der mit etwas mehr Wucht noch besser wäre.
