Glenfiddich 12 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky, 70cl

Product Information

Glenfiddichwas first produced in 1887 and is still family owned today by award-winning distiller William Grant & Sons. If you prefer a sweet finish to your single malt whisky, we recommend the taste of the Glenfiddich 15-Year-Old Single Malt Whisky. This variation has a curiously complex aroma of sweet heather, honey and vanilla fudge, combined with rich dark fruits.

For over 130 years Glenfiddich has been one of the few single malt distilleries to remain entirely family owned and our whisky has become the world's most awarded single malt Scotch whisky, a true reflection of the passion, integrity and innovative spirit championed by a traditional fermentation process that has been passed down through the generations. The Scottish Highlands are used to source the spring water, and only the best grain is used. No matter the age, each bottle is expertly created for an enticing taste and smooth finish. Nose: Deep vibrant vanilla notes with hints of citrus, caramalised brown sugar and cinnamon. Baked apple and ripe summer fruits and balanced with the rich oaky aromas.I can understand the disappointment of some reviewers who are looking for something "bigger", "meatier". But the tasting notes above are quite accurate. And there is certainly room in the vast realm of whisky for such a dram. I actually like this bottle, a drop of water and it’s highly drinkable, it doesn’t send your taste buds into another dimension but still a decent whisky. For 20 years William Grant nurtured a dream to make the ‘best dram in the valley'. With the help of his family, he finally achieved that vision.

A gentle, balanced whisky with hints of butterscotch and fresh pear that adds a touch of fruitiness, while notes of cream and subtle oak give it depth and richness. With a unique freshness from the same Highland spring water we've used since 1887, its distinctive fruitiness comes from the high cut point William Grant always insisted upon. Carefully matured in the finest American oak and European oak sherry casks for at least 12 years, it is mellowed in oak marrying tuns to create its sweet and subtle oak flavours.

Palate: Apple cobbler; orchard fruits; artificial vanilla extract; caramel; bitter oak; cinnamon; English breakfast tea. Must say Morrisons have plenty of different whisky to choose from at vastly differing prices,saw this 12 year old single malt on offer so thought I'd give this Glenfiddich a punt. Glenfiddich was founded by William Grant to fulfil a lifelong ambition of creating the 'best dram in the valley' and named 'Valley of the Deer' in Gaelic.

The mouthfeel is pleasantly soft and buttery. I do believe however that the mention of sherry casks, which I am certain is technically true, is somewhat disingenuous. There is only the merest whisper of sherry here; the faintest aftertaste of a pale honey.
