Glenfiddich 18 Year Old
We use fine Spanish Oloroso wood and American oak to mature this rich, intriguingly fruity and robust oak expression, but there are many more reasons why this expression is special. Every batch is individually numbered and carefully watched over. Each has extraordinary consistency and character from an intense marrying period, and a warming, distinguished finish. A truly exceptional single malt, the result not just of eighteen years of care and attention, but of whisky-making craft and knowledge passed down through the generations.

Nose: A remarkably rich aroma with ripe grapefruit, baked toffee apple and robust oak, dry chocolate woody and cinnamon.
Palate: Richly delivers luxurious dried apricot, candy peel and dates, with more cinnamon toffee and ginger. Overlaid with elegant oak notes.
Finish: Warming, rewarding and distinguished, with a touch of salted toffee.

The Glenlivet 18 Year Old
Over the course of 18 years our Master Distiller, Alan Winchester, takes this expression through a combination of cask types, including both first and second-fill American oak (for tropical fruitiness) and ex-sherry oak (for spicy complexity). The result of this deft navigation of the distilling arts is a gorgeous single malt that is complex, yet elegant and balanced. The 18 Year Old has won more awards than any other expression; every bottle is a true example of the quality and taste of The Glenlivet. Any bottle deserves pride of place in your cabinet perhaps to be held back for a fitting occasion? It is, after all, crafted to impress.
