Glenfiddich 14 Year Old Bourbon Barrel Reserve Scotch

Product Description

Glenfiddich 14 Year Old Bourbon Barrel Reserve Single Malt Scotch: Speyside Scotch with a Kentucky Kick

Scotch drinkers who love bourbon, and bourbon drinkers who are curious about Scotch, meet here. Glenfiddich 14 Year Old Bourbon Barrel Reserve is a Speyside single malt matured for 14 years in ex-bourbon American oak casks, then finished in deeply charred new American oak barrels from the Kelvin Cooperage in Louisville, Kentucky, a rare virgin-oak finish for Glenfiddich. It was created by Malt Master Brian Kinsman, it’s bottled at 43% ABV (86 proof), and it’s a US exclusive, certified Kosher.

The brand describes a copper-oak whisky with vibrant vanilla, citrus, caramelized brown sugar, and cinnamon on the nose, plus baked apple and ripe summer fruits, a palate that’s rich and sweet with creamy toffee, woody spices, candied orange peel, and toasted oak, and a long, sweet finish. The Tasting Panel scored it 93, and Whisky Advocate’s reviewer called it “the closest Glenfiddich gets to producing a bourbon.” It keeps Glenfiddich’s fruity, gentle style, and the new charred oak adds toffee, vanilla, and a little char. Sip it neat, with a splash of water, in a highball, or in a Scotch Old Fashioned. It’s a gift for the bourbon fan who’s ready for Scotch, a step up from the 12, and a distillery that’s been family-owned by the Grants since 1887.
