This 20 Years Old was distilled in Dufftown in 1999 and bottled in 2019. One of only 238 bottles. The distillery name has not been disclosed and this is a blended malt Scotch whisky.
This 12 year old whisky really benefits from the double maturation. It gives the whisky aspects of both a bourbon and sherry cask matured whisky that make it an all round winner.

Specially selected Balvenie - finished in casks that previously held rum distilled in the Caribbean. The delicate fresh taste of Caribbean rum enhances The Balvenie's vanilla notes in the finishing - whilst adding spicy aromatic qualities to the whisky.
Like the Balvenie 12 Years Old Double Wood the 17 Years Old is matured in American Oak and European Oak. The majority of the 17 years is in American Oak with between a few months and a year in European Oak ex-Sherry casks.
In the making of The Balvenie Portwood Single Malt Scotch Whisky, the Master Distiller has carefully selected rare reserves of Balvenie, matured in traditional oak casks, and transferred them to port casks for a few months.
Gordon & Macphail describe this new range as 'testimony to the long and unique relationships built over generations. We have been entrusted with new-make spirit from many of Scotland's distilleries to mature in our casks, our way. Offering interesting and complementary perspectives on already great single malts, this highly sought after collection features the original distillery labels licensed to us, making these whiskies even more distinctive.'
Still a family owned distillery with massive world wide sales and the biggest distillery in Dufftown. The Glenfiddich 12 years old is the lightest in the range and is fresh with hints of pears.

The Distillery says: "This warm and spicy single malt is matured for 15 years in bourbon, new oak and sherry casks before harmonising in our unique Solera vat."
Aged for 15 years in oak casks then transferred into a solera vatting system. The Glenfiddich 15 is fuller and more fragrant than the 12 years old with delicate honey and vanilla notes, fruit and gentle spice.
Matured in small batches the Glenfiddich 18 is arguably the most complex in the core range. It is very fragrant with tropical fruit and sherry cask influences, rich baked apple and cinnamon spice compliments by robust oak notes.
The Glenfiddich Gran Reserva has been matured in American oak casks for 21 years. It is then decanted into hand-selected rum casks for a further 4 months.

The Glenfiddich Experimental series pushes whisky boundaries and challenges traditions. They tell us that when Brian Kingsman met an entrepreneurial Speyside craft brewer they hit it off immediately and a genius idea formed. Brian suggested creating a Glenfiddich whisky finished in an IPA craft beer cask, something never done in the industry before. Not only did they create a pioneering new whisky but they also created a pioneering new craft beer in the process too. Experiment over ice with a twist of blood orange.
