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.
Not a bad whiskey, but very uninspiring
IMHO - Glenfiddich is wonderful - but you need to treat it carefully. Add a dash of water to your dram and then leave it at least 15 mins. If you don't it has a harsh scent and though nice toffee taste again has that harshness. That splash and wait is worth it - then you have a true sweet and caramel experience.
Why would you buy this over an aged Bourbon? Its sour, flavourless and has the most revolting mouldy after taste. Stop buying Scotch because its Scotch. Soaring Bourbon prices and demand are because its better and costs less. The death knell for any industry is when someone makes something better for less.
Bought a bottle of this to try scotch my first time EVER After buying this i was Disappointed in spending $40 on some revolting scotch essentially tasted like some cheap ass bourbon (Jim Bean Was better then This Sh*t) long story short you get what you pay for if your looking to get some good scotch be prepared to spend $80 a bottle or maybe going to a few different bars and seeing what they got to see which brands you would be interested in ^ but i stick with what i said tasted like some cheap bourbon had some jim bean and i drank that instead i drink anything and everything but this is scotch is terrible
Sweet
