Rick Edward-Ambassador of Glenlivet Scotch

The Glenlivet is used to striking gold, but even by its own exalted standards its success at the 2009 San Francisco World Spirits Competition was a spectacular triumph.


There were gold medals for The Glenlivet 15 Year Old and

The Glenlivet 21 Year Old. Even more impressively,

The Glenlivet 18 Year Old picked up a prestigious Double Gold Medal, a doubly remarkable achievement since it was for the second year running.

But the awards didn’t stop there. The Glenlivet Distillery received the ultimate accolade by being voted “Distillery of the Year” by Tasting Panel Magazine. How George Smith, who founded the distillery in 1824, would have enjoyed that. He would also be relieved to know that his priceless legacy is in such good hands.

The Glenlivet left its heart in San Francisco. And it’s a heart of gold.
