The fourth release in the Glenlivet mystery range where no cask information or tasting notes are given.  Consumers have to try and solve the puzzle by guessing tasting notes in the form of a crossword. The Enigma was exclusive to the US market.

The Glenlivet is launching a fourth edition in its mystery series of whiskies, released without any information aside from its abv.

The Glenlivet Enigma is a single malt Scotch whisky presented in a matte black bottle at 60.6% abv.

All other information is kept a secret, however buyers can ‘unlock’ tasting cues by solving a digital crossword puzzle.

The Glenlivet Enigma is the fourth expression in the Speyside distillery’s mystery series.

The first, Alpha, was revealed in 2013, and followed by Cipher in 2016 and Code in 2018.

The Glenlivet Enigma will be a US exclusive, available to purchase from 10 July

‘By challenging consumers to guess the mystery liquid’s taste, feel and finish – and then put that to the test with an interactive digital crossword puzzle – Enigma offers a vehicle for us to engage with a variety of consumers in a way that’s reimagining Scotch whisky tropes.’

More information about The Glenlivet Enigma’s tasting notes, distilling and ageing processes will be revealed at the end of 2019.
