Luxuriously rich with notes of dried fruits and elegant oak, culminating in a warming, long-lasting finish.
Glenfiddich 18 Years Old is a distinguished single malt whisky that exemplifies the craftsmanship of Scotland's most awarded single malt Scotch whisky distillery. Each batch is individually numbered and carefully watched over by the Malt Master.
How It's Made
This exceptional whisky is aged for 18 years in Spanish Oloroso wood and American oak casks. The Malt Master hand-selects each cask and monitors the whisky's maturation closely. Small batches are then married in wooden tuns for at least three months, allowing the flavors to harmonize.
Territory
Produced in Dufftown, in Scotland's Speyside region, Glenfiddich has been family-owned since 1887. The distillery draws water from the Robbie Dhu springs, the same source used since the distillery's founding, contributing to its distinctive character.
Taste Profile
Nose: Rich autumnal fruits, ripe orchard apples, and robust oak.
Palate: Luxuriously rich dried fruit, candy peel, and dates. Overlaid with elegant oak notes.
Finish: Warming, long-lasting, and distinguished with a deep oaky sweetness.
What to Expect
An exceptionally smooth and sophisticated whisky that delivers a complex and rewarding experience. The 18-year maturation creates a perfectly balanced expression with remarkable depth and finesse.
