Glenfiddich - Ultimate, 38y
Bottled in a decanter that takes their own unique shape of bottle but created in crystal. Presented in its own purpose built box.
By Glenfiddich:
"Glenfiddich Ultimate represents the pinnacle of our exceptional whiskies, distilling 125 years of experience into an exclusive and rare expression produced in small vattings.
Aged 38 years old, this sublime single malt comes in a special decanter ornate with an intricately cut heavy crystal stopper. Each bottle is hand-numbered and accompanied by a brass identification card.
This expression is deliciously smooth and the colour of rich gold, with a wood spiciness imparted by sherry butts, complemented by layers of creamy vanilla and rich flavours of caramelised fruit."
Colour
Rich gold
Nose
Vibrant oak notes with a rich vanilla toffee aroma. Fresh summer fruits intensity and a delicate floral character develop with time.
Taste
On the palate, a wood spiciness from the sherry butts shines through, complemented by layers of creamy vanilla from the bourbon barrels and rich flavours of caramelised fruits. Beautifully soft and sweet with a velvety texture and mouth coating oily tannins.
Finish
Velvety, long, memorable and with a rewarding sweetness.
