Glenfiddich Fire & Cane

Let the great experiment... Continue! Glenfiddich has added a new expression to its Experimental Series, unveiling Fire & Cane in mid-2018. Malt master Brian Kinsman has given some of the distillery's peated single malt a three-month finishing period in rum casks - but not just any old rum casks. He's selected rum casks from a variety of South American countries to finish this whisky, which ought to play nicely with the burly peat notes at its core.

Tasting Note by The Producer

Nose Billowing soft peat notes, like distant smoke on the wind. Rich sweet toffee with zesty fresh fruit notes and spiciness.

Palate Like a Highland peat campfire, with oak notes and toffee. Sharp green fruit, sweet baked apple and soft smoke.

Finish Lingering smokiness and sweetness.

Reviews for Glenfiddich Experimental Series - Fire & Cane
Exquisite nose and taste
The subtle smokiness combined with the sweetness from the rum finishing casks is a welcome addition to Glenfiddich's repertoire. It's well worth trying, even if you generally avoid peaty smokiness.

Unfair representation
I feel like some of the people that don’t like this whisky were expecting it to be similar to Glenfiddichs unpeated offerings which is not a good comparison. If you don’t like subtle peat then this isn’t for you, but for those that like a bit of smoke, this is a lovely and smooth easy drinking whisky almost reminiscent of Ardmore but a bit sweeter from the rum influence. Would definitely buy this again 🙌🏼

Lovely
It's always subjective to the reader writing a review, what your taste buds reveal are different to what others reveal. I bought this because it was a Glenfiddich and to taste the experiment. For me it was just the right balance of flavour with a small if not medium hint of smokiness. I generally don't do peaty whiskies from the islands like Islay or a brand like Laphroaig they are too strong for me, but this Glenfiddich had the balance just right, with the hint of sweetness.

What a shame
Tastes like arc welding, clinical aftertaste, made me wonder if it's past a best before date, probably ok as a cleaning fluid for a diesel particle filter, real waste of a lot of money

Shite taste
If you enjoy tasting something that smells and tastes like hospital grade disinfectant, knock yourself out. A total waste of $80. Should’ve gone with original Glen, then at least I’d have something to drink

It's ok
Preferred the 1st batch not enough smoke in this 4th batch. I need to try another batch

Good but not great
I quite like it. I haven't tried this but to me it tastes as though Laphroaig has been mixed into "normal" Glenfiddich. It's the most accurate description of my experience.

A sweet taste that zings on your tongue
For me, this is a perfect whisky - and, oh so tasty. A fiery sweetness, that lingers on your tongue. It reminds me of a Jura Origin or Glenmorangie, but with way more kick

Delicious experiment
This is definitely an interesting one, but for me an experiment that absolutely works. I like a good sipping rum, so enjoyed the slightly sweetness from the rum barrels, though it is quite subtle and works nicely alongside the mild snokiness. All in all, I would get this again in a heartbeat.
