Welcome back to another episode of the Stickmen Podcast! Today, we’re doing our first-ever whiskey review and can’t wait for you all to chime in with your own opinions.
If you’re looking for an affordable whiskey with a long-standing history and full flavor profile, then you’re in luck! We are comparing Glenfiddich 12 and Glenlivet 12. Both are twelve-year-old single malt scotch whiskey with a strong fan base.
Glenfiddich is known for its distinct fresh pear taste and creaminess. It incorporates some subtle oak flavors and ends with a mellow finish.
On the other hand, Glenlivet is the best-selling scotch whiskey in the United States and boasts a clean and smooth taste. It almost has hints of a potpourri and overall a more fruity flavor profile than the former.
We’re curious to hear if you’ve tried either of these whiskeys and what your thoughts on them are!
Key Takeaways:
- What we’re sipping on today (00:00)
- Why you might prefer a Glenfiddich (07:10)
- Discussing its flavor profile (09:03)
- Talking about Glenlivet 12 (13:10)
- Describing the flavor profile (19:22)

Liked this video right away, drinking from tumblers. "Tastes like alcohol"..."my taste buds suck anyway". This I can relate to. No overblown nonsense about chill filtering etc. "You're in good hands". Common man's view. 👍

I did this head to head 2 days ago after not drinking either for some time - The Glenlivet 12 is my dram if I had to choose between them.

The best whiskey review I’ve seen. Very honest and humble review. So many reviews are kinda snobbish. My first scotch was a Glenlivet 18 year old as a gift. I love the 12 year old Glenlivet and the 14 year old is pretty good too. Definitely subscribing to the channel. You guys rock!

Great review. Might have been said before but Glenfiddich is pronounced without the ch at the end more of a k at the end with a Scottish finish.

I have had both bottles in more than four decades, the Glenlivet 12 is often priced almost half the price in several region in America. You will get sales of the product below 40 dollars and seasonal sales that can drop well below 30 bucks. Glenfiddich 12 seems to be priced at least 20% above even when it goes on sale. Both are good whiskey that won't assault the taste preferences of the casual drinker.

Hey! Thank you. Your insights are right on point. Glenlivet is typically at a much better price.

Great review, the flavors you taste are the flavors you taste, that's what's great about whisky. Don't worry about what the big dogs say. In this battle it's The Glenlivet 12 for me. May I suggest Glengoyne 12 or 10 as another budget friendly fine whisky.

Thank You guys. Love your review and how honest you are. I alternate between bottles and take the time to check out others as a second tasting. Love your common man review. Try the Founders Reserve by Glenlivet as I hear that they are moving 12 yr to the shelf in the near future. Against the grain as well, try the cube of ice and cover it with the scotch to open it up more, although I like your bottle cap idea.

Scotch is about the only thing I haven't tried, in the world of alcohol. Sadly, scotch isn't exactly in demand in small town missouri, therefore, getting my hands on it isn't exactly straightforward. Slightly jealous, gentleman. 🍻 cheers.
