Back in 2013 The Glenlivet released a whisky called Alpha with no tasting notes, no cask details and an opaque black bottle. 'Twas quite good fun as everybody tried to guess the production technique used, before the eventual reveal (on that occasion they'd used casks conditioned with Scotch as opposed to bourbon or Sherry, unique for The Glenlivet).

Single malt Scotch whisky is made in the Glenlivet distillery in Moray, Scotland, which is close to Ballindalloch. It is the oldest operating distillery in the parish of Glenlivet and the source of the eponymous Scotch whiskey. Since its founding in 1824, it has been operating virtually constantly. The only time the distillery was shut down was during World War II, and it did so during the entire Great Depression. The Glenlivet distillery has expanded to become one of the largest single malt distilleries in the post-war era. The Glenlivet brand is the second-most popular single malt whiskey brand worldwide and the top-selling single malt whisky in the United States. The French alcoholic beverage corporation Pernod Ricard now owns the distillery and is in charge of its annual output of 5,900,000 proof litres. This is used to make 6 million bottles of The Glenlivet single malt, with the remaining portion going into blended whiskey brands under the Pernod Ricard umbrella.
