Review

Not for me
I liked it
I loved it!

This is a very enjoyable single malt that offers a nice balance of fruit, spice, and wood flavours with a smooth finish. The cask strength is a very welcome addition that adds a lot to the depth and complexity to the whisky, making it a step up from the standard Glenfiddich 12 year old, and we even enjoyed it more than the 18 year old. This is a great choice for those looking for a decent Speyside single malt without the smoke or marine flavours of the Islay.

Occasion

Quiet indulgence, or to be enjoyed with friends over a fruit dessert. Or a gift for those that like the Glenfiddich 12.

Right for you?

If you like Glenfiddich 12, but are looking for something a bit more intense and special. Also makes a great gift for those looking to try cask strength whiskies.
