For 20 years William Grant had the dream of making "the best whisky in the valley". With the help of his family he finally made his dream come true in the summer of 1886. Glenfiddich is Gaelic and means "valley of the stags". 15 years after producing the first Solera vat in 1998, Glenfiddich has built three more oak barrels, mainly for this Cask Collection. The Glenfiddich Cask Collection Select Cask matured in former Bourbon and European oak barrels as well as in former Californian red wine barrels. This Glenfiddich is finished in one of the three new Solera vats.Tasting notes:Colour: Amber. Nose: floral, vanilla, toffee, hints of oak and citrus fruits.
