Glenfiddich 21 Year Gran Reserva Single Malt Scotch

Product Description

Glenfiddich 21 Year Gran Reserva Single Malt Scotch

Glenfiddich 21 Year Gran Reserva is a mature Speyside single malt Scotch whisky patiently aged for 21 years in Scotland, then finished in Caribbean reserva rum casks. That final cask influence brings an exotic layer of fig, lime, ginger and sweet toffee to Glenfiddich’s elegant, fruit-led character, making this 750ml bottle a memorable choice for milestone celebrations, premium gifting or an unhurried after-dinner pour.

Why Choose Glenfiddich 21 Year Gran Reserva?

This expression balances long maturation with a distinctive rum-cask finish. Rather than overwhelming the whisky’s Speyside character, the finishing casks add tropical richness and warming spice while preserving its polished oak structure. Bottled at 40% ABV (80 proof), it offers complexity without sacrificing approachability.

Tasting Notes

Nose: Intense vanilla sweetness and floral lift, followed by banana, fig, rich toffee, new leather and oak.

Palate: Soft at first, then vibrant and drying, with pepper, gentle smoke, oak, lime, ginger and layered spice.

Finish: Very long, warming, dry and spicy.

Food Pairings

The whisky’s fruit, toffee and spice work especially well with roasted duck, glazed pork, aged hard cheeses, toasted nuts or a dark-chocolate dessert. For a simpler pairing, serve it with dried figs or caramelized fruit so the food complements the rum-cask influence without masking the whisky.

Serving Suggestions

Serve Glenfiddich 21 Year Gran Reserva neat in a tulip-shaped whisky glass and allow it a few minutes to open. A small splash of still water can reveal more fruit and spice. One large cube offers a slower, cooler serve, but strongly flavored mixers may cover the subtleties created by its long maturation.

About Glenfiddich

William Grant began building the Glenfiddich Distillery in Dufftown with his nine children and a single stonemason, and the first spirit ran from its copper stills on Christmas Day 1887. The name Glenfiddich means “Valley of the Deer” in Gaelic. More than a century later, the distillery remains family owned, carrying that independent tradition into releases such as Gran Reserva.
