Glenfiddich 15 Years Speyside Single Malt [700ML]

Description

Looking for a Speyside single malt that showcases the artistry of solera aging in Scotch whisky?

Glenfiddich 15 Years represents a pioneering approach to single malt maturation, being one of the first to adopt the solera system traditionally used in sherry production. This innovative process involves marrying whiskies in a large Oregon pine vat that’s never completely emptied, creating remarkable multi-layered complexity. Compare this unique aging method to other exceptional Speyside expressions like the Tomintoul 16 Years or explore different cask influences with the Balvenie 14 Years Caribbean Cask.
