The Glenlivet Cipher Single Malt Scotch Whisky (1x 700mL), Speyside, Scotland. Cork

48% Alc./Vol.

The follow up to 2013's Alpha, Cipher has been released in the same way. The bottle is black, no cask-type information has been released and no public tasting notes have been published. Customers are invited to taste the whisky and try and decipher the secret tasting notes on the Cipher website.

A black bottle. No cask information. No tasting notes. In fact, as little information as is legally possible to put on a bottle of Scotch whisky. That was certainly the intention when Glenlivet released Cipher in 2016. Master Distiller, Alan Winchester wanted to challenge consumers in a new way: Decode the tasting notes and interpret how the whisky was created. Via a video, visitors to the Glenlivet Cipher web site were encouraged to create a flavour wheel by selecting six aromas for the nose and six flavours for the palate, indicating the strength of each, resulting in more than 10,000 possible flavour combinations.
