Glenfiddich 12 single malt whisky is part of the distillery's flagship collection. It is an award-winning Speyside whisky and an excellent choice for seasoned sippers or those who are new to whisky. It has lots of light and fruity flavours thanks to a high cut point. Aged for 12 years in American and European oak casks, it's also the world's most awarded single malt!
Grain. Slightly floral, mineralic. Spirity, orchard fruit, malty, honey. Citrus develops.
Light, floral, spices. Very smooth.
Sweet, touch of oak and general fruit, oily.
Stereotypical Speyside. Consistent - a good benchmark.

It's hip to bash Glenfiddich, but I enjoy a good dram of it. Starter malt maybe...but 10x better than islay Jura for roughly the same price. Oily on the palate, but not overtly with sweet tones of flowers, fruit and tobacco base. Moderate finish with a kick of damp oak. Leaves just enough fire in the belly....what more do you want from a cheap single malt?
This was the first single malt I ever had and I really liked it. Then I had other singles. Now I would never drink this again. They're better at selling scotch than making them!
Drank it last week at a friend's place just to be polite, never was a scotch drinker, not much of a drinker at all as a matter of fact. After 3 glasses my husband was wondering where his wife went, lol....I was flying and loving it. Bought a bottle the very next day and drinking a swig right now.................
I liken this to Johnnie black, the same in so much as they are perfect in their smoothness and so drinkable for their fineness and neutrality. This is the best single malt for me. I drink Woods 100 for a strong hit.
mmm
