A rich and complex Speyside Single Malt bottle of love.
Scotch Whisky legend William Grant founded the Glenfiddich distillery in 1887 with old equipment bought from the Cardhu Distillery. Still in the hands of the Grant family in Scotland, Glenfiddich is the best selling Single Malt Whisky worldwide. If you do not know about Glenfiddich, you’re not a Whisky lover. Not only are they a top volume producer of premium Single Malt loveliness, but they are a much honored and loved Speysider of choice for millions of raving fans — serving up a wide range of Single Malt agings, casks, and special editions.
Glenfiddich 18 Year Old Small Batch Reserve starts as straight-froward, core Glenfiddich Single Malt. It’s fairly common for Scottish Whiskies to be aged in Bourbon barrels and some are “finished” in Sherry casks. What sets this dram apart is that the spirit was aged in a combination of ex-Bourbon and Oloroso Sherry casks for the full eighteen years. Spending all that time in fully-seasoned wood doesn’t “just” add flavor. It develops an approachable depth of character and complexity that really shines with flavor. Add this one to your “must taste” list and grab a bottle now.

Smartass corner:
Back in the day, distilleries sold their production wholesale to supply the blended Whisky market. William Grant was the first to bottle and label their Whiskies as “Single Malts.” It's a vision that has paid off, creating the category we know and love today.
