GLENFIDDICH 21 YEAR OLD GRAN RESERVA 40% 700ML

The return of the name Reserva to Glenfiddich's 21yo after a few years under different titles is also accompanied by an upgrade to its packaging. It is still finished in rum casks for four months, but now has a more elegant presentation, as befits its position towards the top of the distillery's regular range.

A fabulous 21 Year Old bottling from Glenfiddich, and as its name suggests this particular single malt was finished in casks used previously to age Caribbean rum for four months! Some cask influence in the form of tropical fruit and spicy ginger to be found in here.

TASTING NOTES

COLOR:
Rich Bronze.

NOSE:
A finely balanced Nose, with substantial oakiness matched by fruit and luscious sherry notes.

TASTE:
The Taste is complex and seductively woody, emphasised by a floral sweetness.

FINISH:
Exceedingly long, honeyed and warm. Apple, grainy pear, wood polish, some dark chocolate and a not unpleasant hint of cardboard.

OVERALL:
Sweet but balanced by both fruit and wood.
