Tasting Notes

Nose

Toffee, brown sugar and banana, hints of fig and vanilla, baked orchard fruit and a discreet rum-cask warmth, polished oak beneath

Palate

Smooth at 40% — caramel and dried fruit, banana toffee, oak spice, ginger and toasted nut, light molasses sweetness from the rum casks

Finish

Long and warming — vanilla, oak spice, lingering tropical sweetness, the Caribbean influence drying gently into Speyside oak

Expert Review

8.2/10

Twenty-one years of Speyside maturation followed by a four-month finish in hand-selected Caribbean rum casks. Glenfiddich's pioneering rum-finished single malt, drawing the sweetness of the tropics into the Valley of the Deer.
