Description

Glenfiddich 12 Year Old Special Reserve is a well-balanced, complex, and stylish single malt Scotch whisky. It is matured for at least 12 years in a combination of American and European oak casks, including Oloroso sherry and bourbon casks, prior to marrying in oak tuns. This iconic single malt is recognized globally as the world's most awarded single malt Scotch whisky. It showcases a harmonious blend of bright, fruity sensations with subtle oak influences, reflecting the dedication of skilled on-site coopers. The 'Special Reserve' was a precursor to the current Glenfiddich 12 Year Old, introduced around 2000.

Nose
Distinctively fresh and fruity, with dominant aromas of fresh pear, crisp apple, light floral notes, honeyed malt, and sometimes a touch of dank sherry, lemon oil, and white grapes.
Palate
Characteristic sweet, fruity notes develop into a creamy texture with layers of butterscotch, cream, malt, and subtle oak flavors. Pear pastries, gooseberry fool, vanilla, and rosewater are also noted.
Finish
A long, smooth, and mellow finish that leaves a clean, elegant impression, with lingering round, tropical fruit notes of melon, and a buttery quality. Some notes of sherry residue, light malt, and a touch of oak-y bitterness.
