Glenfiddich 25yo Rare Oak

The Glenfiddich 25 years old Rare Oak is a 2014 travel retail exclusive from this Speyside distillery. First it was only available at Singapore airport but later also at other major international airports. This 25 years old Rare Oak has matured in Spanish oak sherry butts and American bourbon barrels. These have been married in small batches and were then bottled at 43% ABV. The result is a premium Speyside single malt with complex aromas and flavours.

Nose: an invitingly sweet, oaky aroma with hints of lime marmalade and oily dried fruits

Palate: creamy, velvety smooth and slightly spicy. A rich, rounded vanilla sweetness with caramelised. Demerara sugar and toasted almonds. Hints of spice develop over time – cardamom, cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves

Finish: sweet with a lingering spiciness
