Description
Brian Kingsman, Glenfiddich's Malt Master, conducted one of the most exciting malt experiments in Glenfiddich's 130-year history. Shrouded in secrecy (its code name was XX, pronounced 20), he invited 20 whisky experts from 16 countries to the Glenfiddich distillery. Brian gave each of these experts complete freedom to explore the warehouse and choose any single cask of Glenfiddich whisky that intrigued them the most.
