The uniqueness of Glenfiddich Solera Reserve derives from the finishing in Solera casks of a blend of whiskies aged 15 years or more from three different casks (sherry, bourbon and new oak).
For twenty years, William Grant had dreamed of producing the 'best whisky in the valley'. With the help of his family, he was finally able to turn his idea into reality. In the summer of 1886, William Grant, with the help of his seven sons and two daughters, set about the task. Together, they built the walls of a distillery, stone by stone. After a year of hard work, they finally reached their goal, and William Grant decided to name his work Glenfiddich, 'the valley of the stags' in Gaelic. Today, William Grant's passion, determination and pioneering spirit continue to permeate Glenfiddich. The world's most awarded single malt, Glenfiddich is still produced in the original distillery. Still in family hands, it has preserved the innovative spirit of its founder for five generations.
Nose: Subtle aromas of smoky peat, vanilla and tropical fruit emerge delicately from the glass. Mouth: On the palate, powerful notes of caramel, black pepper and dark chocolate mingle with hints of sea salt and liquorice. Finish: The finish is long and intense, leaving a warm sensation of smoke and dried fruit on the palate.
Nose: sweetened oat flakes, aromas of vanilla and coconut, behind it spicy American oak Palate: clearly walnuts and almonds, then fresh notes of apricots, coconuts and vanilla Finish: medium-long finish - again the nuts and apricots - above all light hints of oak and vanilla
