Glenfiddich 21 Years Gran Reserva Rum Cask Speyside Single Malt [700ML]

Description

What happens when Scotland’s most celebrated distillery meets the exotic warmth of Caribbean rum casks?

Glenfiddich 21 Years Gran Reserva represents a masterful fusion of Speyside tradition and Caribbean innovation. This exceptional single malt spends two decades maturing in oak before receiving a luxurious four-month finish in hand-selected rum casks. The result transforms Glenfiddich’s signature elegance into something truly extraordinary.
