GLENFIDDICH 50 YEAR OLD
Glenfiddich means “valley of the deer” in Scottish Gaelic, is a Speyside single malt Scotch whisky produced by William Grant & Sons in the Scottish burgh of Dufftown in Moray. Glenfiddich is the world’s best-selling single-malt whisky, also the whiskey that offers the world the delight of single malt. Above all else, Glenfiddich’s success comes from the fact that it’s the ‘easy to access’, the easiest to drink malt whiskey that can be enjoyed at any time of the day. For William Grant & Sons it can be said that Glenfiddich 50 years old is their “heirloom” product, of course it is also the culmination of whiskey career.
- The heirloom and the pinnacle of whisky-making
This exquisite whisky has been drawn from two casks, both having spent the last 50 years maturing in the darkness and chill of Warehouse 8. Before bottling, our Malt Master married them for six months with great care in an American oak barrel to give the wondrous array of flavours and aromas an unrivalled harmony.
A culmination of over a century of expert craft, traditions passed down by five generations and spirited invention. Every bottle of this finest Single Malt is uniquely hand-blown and individually numbered in wax before our sixth-generation silversmith,Thomas Fattorini, applies his finishing touches. Presented in a classic, hand-stitched, black leather case with accompanying hand-woven silk lining, one is left in no doubt as to the pedigree of this creation.
- Rich taste
Glenfiddich 50 năm has aromas of dried citrus, lemongrass, and ginger with background honeyed vanilla, dried herb, bouquet of roses, and a wisp of smoke. Very long and evolving on the palate, going from sweet to dry: vanilla custard, crème brulee, white chocolate, candied citrus, juicy oak, polished leather, dried tobacco, and then resinous oak, with teasing dry roasted nuts and hint of peat bog throughout. Long dry, resinous finish. Remarkably well-maintained for its age.
