GLENFIDDICH 2007 SPIRIT OF SPEYSIDE 2020 DISTILLERY EDITION
Handpicked by Glenfiddich Malt Master Brian Kinsman, this special liquid spent 13 years maturing in the darkness of Glenfiddich’s Warehouse 26. Finished in a single, second fill sherry cask, Glenfiddich Spirit of Speyside Distillery Edition 2020 has been bottled at the unusually high strength of 65.07% ABV.
Interested in what this special Speyside spirit could taste like? Find tasting notes on this incredible whisky below:
Nose: Rich, vibrant and zesty. A few drops of water reveal orange oil and vanilla oak aromas complemented by layers of beeswax, polished sandalwood and dried bracken
Taste: Lively, silky smooth and incredibly sweet with a rich citrus and cinnamon-infused apple fruitiness
Finish: Succulent sweet fruit unfolding into a long-lasting oakiness
Brian and Struan recommend adding a drop or two of water to this unique whisky to ‘open’ up the flavours and bring down the ABV a touch.
