Glenfiddich 12 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky, 70cl

Product Information

Glenfiddich distillery, as well as the river from which it takes its name, are both located a hop, skip, and a jump from Balvenie Distillery in the Speyside region of Scotland. When it comes to production, Glenfiddich cranks out more 12-year-old Scotch than any other distillery. Yes, the whisky tastes a bit flat, partly due to a low ABV, but it is reliable without any glaring faults. Like Starbuck’s coffee, the quality of this whisky is not awe-inspiring, but it’s predictably consistent. A good whisky if you don't drink a lot of whisky, and want something decent in the drinks cabinet - also more versatile than Glenmorangie.

I can understand the disappointment of some reviewers who are looking for something "bigger", "meatier". For 2 years William Grant nurtured a dream to make the ‘best dram in the valley' with the help of his family. The most aged whisky in the flagship collection, this blend is alluring on the nose with scents of orchard fruit, baked apple and robust oak.

Flowing in the Valley of the Deer, with a unique freshness from the same spring water used since 1887, its distinctive fruitiness comes from the high cut point William Gran insisted upon. After a single year of work it was ready and William named it Glenfiddich, Gaelic for Valley of the Deer. Produced in the Valley of the Deer, this distinct whisky is widely proclaimed to be the best dram in the valley. Matured in the finest Oloroso sherry and bourbon casks prior to marrying in oak tuns, it’s well-balanced, complex and stylish. Many traditions have stuck with the family-run business over its 130+ years in the industry and as such Glenfiddich is now the world’s most-awarded single malt scotch whisky.

Founded by William Grant in 1887 as the result of a year of tedious construction, the Glenfiddich distillery opened on Christmas Day. Today, the luxury spirits company is run by the fifth generation of his family and distils some of the world's leading brands of Scotch whisky, including the world's favourite single malt Glenfiddich®, The Balvenie® range of handcrafted single malts and the world's third largest blended Scotch Grant's® as well as other iconic spirits brands such as Hendrick's® Gin, Sailor Jerry®, Tullamore D. Carefully matured in the finest American oak and European oak sherry casks for at least 12 years, it is mellowed in oak marrying tuns to create its sweet and subtle oak flavours. Flowing in the Valley of the Deer since 1887, our family's signature expression is the world's most awarded single malt Scotch whisky.
