22 year old single cask Glenfiddich single malt? Music to our ears, those words. This one was distilled back in 1992, back when their stills were lit by coal fires rather than gas (as they are now). A phenomenal release from the renowned distillery in Speyside, & very limited too
- only 200 bottles were produced, presented at 56.3% ABV. NOSE: Citrus, lemon, honey PALATE: Spicy, liquorice, apple FINISH: long, oak, plum, still citrus & spice. Phenomenally satisfying & well worth the price.

This was the last edition of Glenfiddich 30 YO before its 2010 re-launch, & was released to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the opening of the distillery's visitor centre in 1969. A rare & elegant example of Glenfiddichs pioneering approach to producing the worlds most exceptional aged single malt Scotch whiskies. Each individual cask is carefully nurtured by the Glenfiddichs Malt Master for three decades before being personally nosed & tasted, to ensure it lives up to his exacting standards & is of outstanding quality. It is then vetted with other casks of equal calibre in small individually numbered batches. This process is intensely time-consuming, but is essential to ensure the unique character & richness of taste that sets Glenfiddich 30 Year Old apart. The rarity of this single malt is unquestionable
- there are only ever a handful of the 30 Year Old a year. Nose: Finely balanced, with substantial oak matched by fruit & luscious sherry notes. Palate: Complex & seductively woody, emphasised by a floral sweetness. Finish: Exceedingly long, honeyed & warm.

In homage to the intrepid Portuguese voyagers who went on to change our understanding of the new world, they created Glenfiddich’s first ever 19 Year Old single malt Scotch whisky. Finished in fine, aged Madeira wine casks from an independent island winery dating back to 1850 they named this expression, Glenfiddich Age of Discovery. An earthy, bright whisky with a warmth that fades to long sweetness. The first time Glenfiddich used Madeira casks for incredible, rich depth. Nose: Deep earthy aromas of sweet ripe fig & orange marmalade create a backdrop to bright notes –fresh gooseberry & grapes ripening on the vine. Palate: Rich, spicy cinnamon & crushed black pepper rest on a deep earthy base. Caramelised fruits, crystallised ginger, raisins & hints of dry oak unravel. A satisfying, silky smooth, almost oily texture. Finish: Dry with warmth that fades into sweet marmalade notes. ...
