Glenfiddich Grand Cru
The folks at Glenfiddich clearly enjoy exploring new cask types for their whisky. Whether it’s peaty whisky in rum casks, or making good use of icewine casks, the distillery certainly has some experimental flair. And if experimental flair is what you’re after, Glenfiddich Grand Cru 23 Year Old is the perfect thing. This single malt initially ages in American and European oak casks, before being moved over to rare French cuvée oak casks. The influence these casks has had on the whisky is fantastic, lifting the palate with notes of baked goods and fresh fruit.

Nose
Soft lemon and pink lady apple notes sit alongside a heavier creaminess. Marzipan and honey brioche follow. The apple becomes more intense with time, picking up grapes, floral honey and the merest hint of red fruits along the way.
-
Palate
Oily. Sweet, honeyed fruits and a rush of cream, then baked apple tart with extra apple skins and flecks of spice. The sweet nuttiness from the nose is present too.
-
Finish
Dry and short, with notes of hazelnuts, brioche and honeysuckle.

Fantastic stuff of course. We like smoke, and there’s not a lot else that can compete.

As you’d expect, this is outstanding. A really excellent whisky behind the peat, and really nice peat. You can read all about the tastes, flavors, and aromas from others, so just confirming you can’t go wrong with this at all. One thing – I’m not really that partial to the really peaty whiskeys, although I love single malt the best of any drink. But this stands out.
