Glenfiddich 40 Year Old
Whisky
Description
Glenfiddich 40 Year Old Scotch Whisky is an exemplary single malt made from marrying 40 year old vattings to craft a peerless whisky. Infinite depth and layer upon layer of aroma and flavor create a 40 year old unrivalled by other rare whiskies of this age. Our 40 Year Old is not only precious but also pioneering. Our Malt Master carefully hand selects individual casks before marrying them together with what was left over from the previous 40 Year Old vatting. This continuous process is known as "remnant vatting" and contains whiskies that are at the very least, 40 years old. We are the only single malt Scotch whisky in the industry to use remnant vatting. Best enjoyed neat, on the rocks, with a splash of water, or with club soda to expand the flavor.
Tasting Notes
Nose: Beautifully rich with layer upon layer of dried fruits, dark chocolate, roasted coffee and ripe black cherries. Waves of gentle wood smoke, polished leather and cloves.
Taste: Silky smooth and luxurious. Intense dried fruit notes are followed by rich fruitcake, dates, raisins and stewed apples. Over time slightly dry oak notes appear, with a hint of bitter chocolate and the faintest peat notes.
Finish: Incredibly long lasting and complex.
