Winner of 7 awardsGlenfiddich
This single malt from Glenfiddich was aged for 14 years before a finish in new American and Spanish oak casks. They say the American oak adds spice, vanilla, and fruit, and the Spanish oak brings elegant fruit, spice, and complexity.

Although I'd agree with the few that say something is missing here, it's good stuff but it's just 1 fry short of a happy meal. Got this quite cheap in the supermarket so as an experiment I'm sticking it into a master of malt 1L cask for a bit. See if I can bring that extra little something to it. The cask has already been used a few times so should be kind and gentle to this otherwise good whisky. All that said it's quite different to your usual Glenfiddich range so I'd still recommend trying it.
I bought this in a supermarket today as it was on offer. Its very mellow and the vanilla really comes through. Even my mrs liked it and she doesnt really like whisky. I drink whisky sparingly as its expensive but feel this may dissapear quite quickly. Much nicer than the standard 12 year old. I bought an 18 year old special reserve a few christmases ago and for me no other glenfiddich has come close (within affordable price range of course) and as that one is no longer available I think ive found a new favourite!!! And yes. I do only buy glenfiddich. I drink many whiskys at bars or at friends/families houses. Some are very nice. But I like glenfiddich. I know what im getting.
The comment by Sued Buster shows a lack of understanding of what dry means. It means on the opposite end of the spectrum compared to sweet. So something can be dry and watery or sweet and watery (albeit in that case not very sweet, but definitely not dry). Go back to kindergarten indeed....
Great stuff'!!
it's pleasant enough, and if you like the smell of freshly sawn oak it's one for you, but I agree with the 'Something doesn't quite click' post above. this whisky is what id call above adequate but not top notch. IMHO the 18yo is the best in the Glenfiddich range (that ive tried so far) so would recommend that instead of this expression or the solera
