Glenfiddich
Select Cask has a lovely balance of
delicate vanilla, barley sweetness,
candied fruit and oak spice.
 The
Glenfiddich Select Cask is the first of three whiskies in the
new travel retail exclusive
Glenfiddich Cask Collection. It was
matured in hand-selected aged Bourbon,
European oak and red wine casks, then
finished for at least 2 months in the
innovative Select Cask Solera Vat which
Glenfiddich have constructed in
Warehouse 8 at the distillery in Dufftown
to create this new expression.
The Glenfiddich Select Cask was bottled
at 40% ABV, 1 litre bottle and will be
available in global travel retail
outlets from this month. RRP £40.00
William
Morrison's Tasting Notes:
Nose:
Mild apple, marmalade and sultanas
mingles with light creamy vanilla
toffee.
Taste:
Very smooth, a delicate candied
fruitiness, creamy toffee, some barley
sweetness with just a wee touch of oak
spice.
Finish:
Fresh, candied fruit, toffee, mildly
drying and slowly fading mild peppery
oak spice.
Comment:
This really has a lovely balance of
delicate vanilla, barley sweetness,
candied fruit and oak spice, almost like
a Glenfiddich 12 with some added candied
fruit. A very easy to drink, smooth
delicate Glenfiddich, very much enjoyed
this, I am sure this will become very
popular, a charming dram.
SMW Score
86/100
