Wine Enthusiast 94 points - TOP 100 SPIRITS OF 2019 - Scented with honey and baked apple, this single malt is big and rich, opening with fruit and just a puff of smoke, adding a distinct mouthwatering sea salt note midpalate, then stretching on into a long, butterscotch finish. It marries whiskies matured in Sherry, Bourbon, and new oak casks in a solera vat, which has been periodically topped up with new whiskey since 1998-no wonder it’s so complex...Kara Newman, December/2019 Ultimate Beverage Challenge 95 points - Deep gold, near amber, hue. A generous nose with aromas of sherry and sea spray. The palate is rich with flavors of toffee, saltwater, cinnamon, nutmeg, and black pepper spices. The texture glides, while the finish has oxidative sherry notes, caramel, and peat. There’s a lot going on here..March/2013 The richly layered Glenfiddich 15-Year-Old single malt Scotch whisky is matured in three types of oak cask: sherry, bourbon, and new oak, before being married in our unique, handcrafted Solera vat. The Solera vat is never emptied but is always kept at least half full. Here, flavors are harmoniously married, creating a whisky of character and intense complexity.
