The story of Glenfiddich 18YO

Glenfiddich 18 Year Old is a small batch Speyside single malt from the William Grant & Sons distillery in Dufftown. The distillery works 43 swan-necked copper pot stills, smaller than those at most big distilleries, and takes its water from the Robbie Dhu spring nearby.

The whisky spends eighteen years in Spanish oloroso sherry casks and American oak. The malts are then married in batches of no more than 150 casks, resting in wooden tuns for at least three months before bottling at 40%. The colour is a rich bronze. Baked apple and ripe orchard fruit lead the nose, with firm oak behind. The palate brings dried fruit, candied peel and dates, and the finish is warm and long.

It is poured neat, over ice, with a splash of water or lengthened with soda. The dates and candied peel suit a slice of fruit cake or a square of dark chocolate on the side.
