This vibrant single malt scotch whisky is matured for 12 years in American and European Oak Sherry casks before finishing in Amontillado casks for a distinctively rich and refined depth of flavor. Find all the sweet, fruit character of our signature Glenfiddich 12 Year Old, enhanced by Amontillado casks, adding lively notes of dried fruits and a delicately spicy finish.
Amontillado casks are from the Spanish Sherry region of Jerez and are the rarest of Sherry Casks – representing only 1.8% of all sherry produced. Every year, Amontillado casks make up less than 5% of all our imported sherry casks, illustrating their rarity and desirability.
Tasting Notes:
- Nose: Distinctively fresh and fruity with a hint of pear, delicate dried fruits and subtle spice.
- Palate: Beautifully sweet, fruity notes enveloped by rich oak, cinnamon, nutmeg and a hint of baked apple.
- Finish: Smooth and mellow with a lingering spiciness.
