Glenfiddich 12 year – 70cl is sweet and oily with a touch of oak and general fruit on the finish. The whisky is aged for 12 years in American and European Oak casks. The coopers ensure their whisky develops complex, elegantly rounded flavours with notes of fresh pear and subtle oak. A single malt scotch whisky stored in a combination of both American & European oak casts. A 12 years old matured in American bourbon, Portuguese sherry and virgin oak. The whisky was then married in a Solera vat. This is a great staple 12 year old from the Glenfiddich distillery. It is stored in these oak casks for 12 years which gives it a uniqueness in taste and elegance in blend. Great gift bottle idea. The term “single malt whiskey” refers to a whiskey that is produced by a single distillery using a single malted grain, which is typically barley. Single malts are most famous among Scotch whisky, though they can be produced anywhere in the world. Ireland, Japan, America, Canada, and other countries produce great single malts as well.
