Just picked up a bottle of Glenlivet 15 Year French Oak Reserve.

Sitting down to sample it, big fan of the 12 year. This is even better, doing a side by side with the remains of my 12 year bottle. The 15 is a lot drier but in a good way, not as sweet, and very woody. I taste a little citrus, but not much. The color between the two is very noticeable as well the 15 being a much deeper golden shade.

I am drinking each straight up (neat) with no ice. I figured that was the best way to compare. Highly recommend to try the 15 year if you like the 12 year Glenlivet.
