Glenfiddich 15

Product Description

A 15 year old matured in American bourbon, Portuguese sherry and virgin oak. The whisky was then married in a Solera vat. This is a great staple 15 year old from the Glenfiddich distillery. Never emptied, and kept half full of whiskies since 1998, the Solera Vat is the culmination of curious minds and the pioneering spirit of the family. 

Highlights 

• Glenfiddich is one of the few single malt distilleries to remain entirely family owned and is now the World's most awarded single malt scotch whisky, a true reflection of the founder's innovative nature, passed down through generations.
• Glenfiddich Distillery is located just a little to the north of the Speyside village of Dufftown.
• One of the best-known brands of single malt, the business has been continuously in the ownership of the Grant family since they started this distillery here in 1886.
• This continuity of ownership is an impressive achievement in an industry that has seen so many distilleries bought out by big internationals.
• Glenfiddich is also the only distillery in Speyside where Bottling still takes place on-site.
• 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.
• In the summer of 1886, with his seven sons and two daughters by his side, William set out to fulfil a lifelong ambition. Together they began building his Distillery by hand, stone by stone.
• After a single year of work it was ready and William named it Glenfiddich, Gaelic for Valley of the Deer. William's passion, determination and pioneering spirit continues to guide us today.
• Speyside region. 
• 70cl bottle size.
• 40% ABV.

Tasting Notes

Nose: An intriguingly complex aroma. Sweet heather honey and vanilla fudge combined with rich dark fruits.

Palate: Silky smooth, revealing layers of sherry oak, marzipan, cinnamon and ginger. Full-bodied and bursting with flavour.

Finish: Satisfyingly rich with lingering sweetness.
