NEW YORK, Aug. 22, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- This September, the original single malt Scotch whisky maker is collaborating with globally renowned fashion designer Prabal Gurung, breaking conventions, and setting the new single malt standard with its latest expression, The Glenlivet® 14 Year Old, in partnership with New York Fashion Week: The Shows. The Glenlivet has always done things differently, and after 195 years of whisky making the brand is disrupting the category by introducing the first single malt Scotch whisky to be selectively finished in ex-Cognac casks with The Glenlivet 14 Year Old. The innovative liquid was designed to turn the tables on whisky tropes and recruit the next generation of brown spirit sippers to experience single malt Scotch whisky through modern packaging, bold influencer partners and disruptive activations that celebrate the bold, non-traditional flavor profile and palate. With the help of Prabal Gurung and NYFW: The Shows, The Glenlivet 14 Year Old is bringing that same bold spirit to New York City and beyond with exclusive events, pop-ups and its custom co-designed Prabal Gurung x The Glenlivet flask & flask bag commemorating the launch of The Glenlivet 14 Year Old.

The 14 Year Old expression, non-traditional partnerships and creative activations are aimed at transforming perceptions of single malt Scotch whisky while making The Glenlivet a more contemporary, versatile and approachable liquid, whether sipping the liquid neat or savoring in a new, favorite cocktail.
