Description

The Glenfiddich Malt Master's Edition is a single malt Scotch whisky from the Speyside region, created by Malt Master Brian Kinsman. It is notable for its double maturation process, initially aged in traditional oak casks, then transferred to high-quality sherry casks for its final years of maturation. This labor-intensive process results in a rich and complex whisky. This particular release is Batch #08/16, bottled in 2016, and was a limited edition with 18,000 bottles released in the United States. It is presented as a gift pack with glasses.

Nose: Damp earth and whisky-soaked wood intertwine with deep vanilla and smoky embers. Elegant and fruity aromas of ripe apples, plums, cherries, and sweet malt meet vanilla, spices, and a subtle sherry note, with a slightly nutty hint and a touch of oak in the background.
Palate: Rich with complex flavors layered by double-maturation. Sherbet and zinginess slowly turn to spice. Tempting plum and cherry follow, with hints of toasted almonds and fruit cake. Full-bodied and balanced, with sweet dried fruits, toffee, honey, dark chocolate, a hint of cinnamon, and delicate oak spice.
Finish: Silky and smooth. Medium to long, soft and warm, with gentle spices, subtle sweetness, and a hint of oak lingering pleasantly.

The ripe apples, plums and cherries give this a fruit-led start, while vanilla and the subtle sherry note add warmth without crowding them out. On the palate, the sherbet-like zing shifts toward spice, then richer dried fruit, toffee and dark chocolate. That move from bright fruit to deeper sweetness sounds especially appealing, and the gentle oak-spice finish keeps the whole picture balanced rather than overly sweet.
