Glenfiddich
Scotland
Single Malt
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.
I have a bottle of Glenfiddich 12 which my Mum gave me just before she passed away on Christmas Eve 1998. I have that original bottle and I have a dram in her memory each year. Recently I bought a bottle of Glenfiddich 12 and was surprised to find how much it has changed, and not for the better.
I first tried this around thirteen years ago, it's changed slightly and although I still buy it occasionaly I think it's lost a bit of those pear / apple notes and is slightly more bland than before.
They’ve definitely changed the taste. Bitter now with a taste of raisins that you get in cheaper whisky. Used to be one of my favourites. Not now.
It was not the same as it was a year or two ago. Completely basic taste, like they were trying to be a basic as possible without being innoffensive. Problem was that I got harsh grain alcohol notes in a few sips that made me wonder if it really was a 12 year old. None of the fruity, estery goodness I remembered. Good for alcohol effect, but not to enjoy, at least for the 2019 bottling. Hope it goes back to the old way.
Recently bought my first bottle in a long time , the taste is harsh with burning and not smooth. Glad I didnt pay usual price
