Braes of Glenlivet was built by Chivas and the Glenlivet Group in 1973. It is situated in the Livet Glen in Speyside, and is located near to its namesake, the Glenlivet distillery. Due to confusion with the name, the distillery was renamed Braeval in 1994. In 2002, it briefly shut down, only to be renovated and reopened in 2008. Thanks to the modern equipment at the distillery, Braeval is operated by just one person.
This 20 year old expression is a rarer bottling under the original 'Braes of Glenlivet' name; the Glenlivet suffix was dropped in 1994.
