Glenfiddich Project XX

Product Description

The second release in Glenfiddich's Experimental Series is their Project XX expression, which was made not simply by one Malt Master, but 20 in total. These whisky experts who were invited from 16 different countries around the world were invited to the Glenfiddich distillery to pick any expression from the thousands of casks maturing in the warehouse. The 20 chosen whiskies were then married by Malt Master Brian Kinsman to create this superb single malt. Project XX ("twenty") is the result of one of the most ambitious malt experiments undertaken by Glenfiddich.
