Glenlivet
Reddit take
Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- Singles Malts are relatively uncommon in cocktails but an entry level Glenlivet might be a good option.
- Balvenie Caribbean Cask ,Glenmorangie Qunita Ruben, Glenlivet and Glenfiddich 18's are also nice.
- When people ask me why I don't go out, I tell them I can spend 50$ for a couple drinks, or I can spend 50$ on a BOTTLE of glenlivet.
- Try a cheap (£25 - £40) bottle from the supermarket. A Glenlivet if you can but any single malt is a good starting point.
- 1+ on the Glenlivet. My wife bought me a small sampler bottle of it and for even a beginner I found it very nice.
Cons
- i am not a huge fan of glenlivet, it’s not bad but there’s a lot of other similarly priced stuff that i think is more interesting.
- I consider it more drinkable compared to many Ryes and Bourbons, I 'd have it over Glenlivet

Completely agree, I thought it had a nice balance and was really easy to drink.
I was pleasantly surprised by the fruitiness too
Bought two bottles of this very one for my sons at Christmas after trying a bottle for myself. Very easy to drink. Good call!
